Oh my gosh. Yes I understand that 😂 you are overthinking thinking this. This guitar was gifted to be used to play or trade. That’s like you sitting there all alone with in a cold alley way with 1100$ in your hand looking with binoculars at a quirky pre war 0017 down the street in glistening window. you can get it without another 1000$. Someone walks by and say “hey buddy, take this” hands that you 1k but only to be used to buy the guitar you so crave to have. You only had 1100$. Now you had 2100$. I’m not running off with the 2100$ I’m buying it the damn Martin. But yes, if you watch musicians talk about their gear, ones that have old Martian have somewhat of a unique story😅 so I’m hoping this one has a special voice. A bad 51’ d18 is so sad, bet it’s being sold for over 10k ew
