It doesn't look quite as big with everything else around it, but it looks good next to his collection.

That's exactly what he'd expect now. Subvert expectations! Make a tiny guitar!

There's a luthier reading this post now exclaiming "Tiny guitar!? Absolute madness! We're through the looking glass here, people".

A luthier (/ˈluːtiər/ LOO-tee-ər; US also /ˈluːθiər/ LOO-thee-ər)[1][2] is a craftsperson who builds or repairs string instruments that have a neck and a sound box.

What a fun new word to learn, thank you friend

Jesus Christ it’s a buck short of one hundred and thirty-five thousand dollars what the fuck also it’s hideous

At first glance I thought that it was a ~135$ guitar

Then i saw the “9.00”

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Yeah, it's around 120k more than what I would consider the highest price that could make sense for an acoustic guitar, and even that's a bit of a stretch...
