For the same reason someone buys a KIA SOUL.

Or gets a Pit Bull as a pet.

Some people LIKE ugly.  [wink]  (could be why my wife married me.)

My wife married me for the same reason……and the reason I know that is because she drives a Kia Soul (bright yellow).  I feel like a TAYLOR swift fan when I drive it….lol

Remember when she won the MTV award and Kanye West went on stage?  That was 14 years ago.  Her fans who were 14 at that time are 28 now.  

I have seen clips of it on YT, but I did not watch in real time, as MTV was only good for a few years, ya know when they played music video's, and is now a just a channel that has Giudo's on it and Mom's who get knocked up in their teens. Thanks for The Real World MTV and reality TV.

You know what the beginning of the end actually was?  

This was the first thing I remember MTV doing that wasn't music, and it was a huge success (1987-1990):

Steve did you buy the Green J-45, its gone? Someone needs to post a NGD. Wow someone paid 4.5k for that when they could have gotten one in a normal color at 2.8k.I guess the green color, and flaws was worth an extra 1.7k to someone?

Some lucky stiff gets to own Kermit's Home Depot Special.

Nope the green afterbirth is back. It was gone. Someone must have had it in there cart, but down the bottle down, went to bed, woke up sober, and said "what the hell was I thinking?"

Home Depots color is Orange. Now is there gonna be an Home Depot J-45? Case candy will include a Ryobi bit set, with quick change attachment, and a Klein 11 in 1 screwdriver.

The Home Depot core color is orange PMS 165.

If Kermit The Frog Green is their color, then sure. But that looks like Forest or Hunter Green. I know Lowes color is some shade of blue. Why is a Lowe's always across the street or down the street from a Home Depot?

Maybe I can swing a package deal and get this bad boy:

Do a Hot Tuna tribute with an acoustic set of Kermie and then come back out for an electric set on what I fondly think of as The Vomit Comet!!!

Luckily, the truss rod cover is on there crooked so it won't get lost in the crowd.

Just a bit, must have been a 3 joint lunch that day.

Like I said, slag on Martin all you want, but his is posted on Gibson's own site. Hey look at our wonky TRC, and crooked tuners, and opps the new guy bumped it into the corner of the work bench, and they post pics of it. And that one guy who could rest a drill bit on his binding, but it doesn't pop off so its acceptable.

Sorry. Ears were burning. Plus, I was bored.

I forgot that was yours. That’s just total lack of care, and let’s get this out the door for another sale.
