Well that's what's great about our country. If you want to dump money in baseball seats, you can.

Gee, I'd just like to get a real nice guitar on a "splurge". One of those items that isn't for anything other than some luxury that you can enjoy on your own.

Good for the Yankees and their fans.

Like I said, I'm not a baseball fan but I've got nothing against people spending their money on what they want to. Rather than a democrat, telling you that you've got to buy tickets to the Mets games in order to "be fair"..... or worse yet, subsidize the Red Sox ....haahhahahaha

Like one of these beauties?

G&L Leo Fender Commemorative Edition ... beautiful sunburst with figured wood grain, all gold hardware, even (supposedly) the strings are gold plated(!) ... Leo Fender's signature on the upper bout with a flower and the dates of his birth and death: 1909-1991.

It can't be played ... EVER!!! Anyone buying and/or 'playing' this piece would be cast out into the abyss of shame by (museum piece) guitar collectors! This guitar is truly a showpiece collectible and was marketed as such ......

........ ironically ........

Leo Fender himself would have been appalled by such a thing, as he always believed that his products were meant to be used, and not sit in some airtight museum casing untouched

/laughs
