I just bought 3 of the guitars in this video, as well as a SammyG tee

-10/10 I assume means: "I would sell my house just so I don't have to own this guitar."

The "The Joker" guitar is literally a joke, if you read into the description they're asking some eclectic millionaire somewhere to buy it just so that the number one most expensive guitar ever sold will be some random guitar and they can try and spark up some mystery about it.

My only aspiration in life is becoming a rich guitar collecting big mac gobbler

Didn’t the David Gilmore Strat get beat out by the unplugged Kurt Cobain acoustic? Didn’t that thing sell for 6 million or something like that?

You know a guitar is weird when it makes even Sammy G say “What the shit?”

Synthaxe definitely gets an 11/10. That's how you make a synth guitar. The idea of a guitar, controlling synths, plus a famous jazz guitarist made it his signature thing for a while.

That negative series Epiphone Flying V is definitely a money laundering scheme. I found a Reverb listing using the same exact image and the same exact condition at $460

The John Cale guitar's block of text seems like it might be algorithmically generated to have reverb recommend it to a lot of people. From search terms or whatever.

@3:36 speaking of hockey stick guitars, there is a luthier in metro south St. Louis, MO area that is currently building what looks to be a telecaster-esque hollow body with the neck made from modern carbon fibre hockey sticks. Apparently, it is supposed to be a custom made for the St. Louis Blues.

The Futurama actually looks like a modded Soviet Borisov Futurama-2, refinished and with a different pick guard. Maybe the original horrible Soviet pickups have been swapped for P90s.

The body shape, headstock and bridge/trem look identical.

I would advise caution when buying early Soviet electric guitars because those did not have truss rods and their necks tend to get warped over time.

Honestly never thought I'd see an Ed Gein signature guitar.

I saw kid rock out in the wild one time. How i know it was kid rock is because i saw a big lifted white truck with "Kid Rock" written across the windshield and he was walking towards it.

It was in a wealthy touristy coastal town near some of the hotels on the bayfront, it was actually a place you might see someone like that. Im not the type to recognize celebrities, and i live in the american south so even someone looking like kid rock wouldn;t stand out all that much to me. But the truck was a bit of a give away lol i saw it first and was like "wtf? who likes kid rock THAT much?" And then i saw him and was like oh thats ACTUALLY kid rock. Is it more weird or less weird for him to drive a vehicle with his name in big letters on it?

When Jim Irsay was questioned why he paid so much for the Black Strat his response was "Because I really fucking love Pink Floyd".

He is also a mass collector who offers guitars to be recorded with, so it may find itself in good playing hands.

That was Edges less famous and more pudgy cousin, Cliff.

My formula for the perfect axe:
1 used Mexi Strat - $300
1 Wilkinson trem upgrade - $60
1 set Fender graded locking tuners : $60
2 Fender pups: $120 (N-M)
1 Humbucker $140 (B)
1 newly wired pick guard plus setup: $275

You end up with an amazing asskicker axe for $1G people are constantly asking about if it’s vintage, or old pups.. it’s a lousy 2009 Mexi with a lot of love :)

The sammy g high school shirt really screams "dealing through tough times"

[joesharpe]

The Futurama is a Guyatone model from Japan, during the guitar boom of the 60's. It's not a one off, I would know, I own one. Also I'm fairly sure the one in the vid was a refin.

[marshfilm]

If you're the guitarist in Mac Sabbath, then yeah, that fries axe!

[christiankillebrew]

Imagine making 50 grand off a teisco guitar though
