Imagine being so insecure, fragile and loathsome than when a talented young woman tells people to go out and vote you feel like you need to have a shit-fit over it.

Holy shit, where will we ever get another guitar signed by Taylor Swift? Those must be so hard to make. First she has to get a guitar. Then sign it. Impossible. Truly, a finite resource. I hope Taylor donates 4K to Kamala's campaign in direct response to this video. That would be awesome.
Oogibah
Am I the only one here who thinks there is no way a Taylor swift signed guitar is only 4k and this guy def got scammed?
leroy666
Karma.
richardstinks
Okay, I did a little sleuthing to clarify. It is entirely doubtful that Tay Tay actually owned and played this, as someone else rightfully pointed out. Her actual guitars have raised $50k and $120k at auction.
Apparently it was a charity, so at least some good came of spending gobs of money to just smash an autograph. Also, haha old man scared of pop star.

150 character limit. I am sorry you were never taught how to handle complex sntence structures and plausible inference.

Its a shit sentence and you totally could have written it better with more characters. Besides, imgur has way more than 150 character limit

You're a self absorbed idiot. It still has a lot of versions and views which continue to enforce 150 character limits. This is well known.

I mean cool dude way to act like a sane reasonable person who is good with money. You could have just written Taylor swift on a pile of $4,000 and set it on fire. Would have saved a whole lot of time. These fucking people

Well see the violent smashing is really what they're in it for. You know cause you can picture that it's her face and well...it's like the only time they really feel alive, and happy, because they're psychos

This doofus actually found a dumber way to protest than those dipshits who smashed their Keurig machines after Keurig did... something woke I guess? I don't remember what that particular hissy fit was about.

I don't know about woke, but that DRM thing was fairly bullshit. Plus all the plastic waste.
But shit, man, just sell the thing in a garage sale like the rest of us
FlatPlutoSociety
Oh yeah, Keurigs absolutely suck shit, and even if you eliminate the plastic waste by getting the compostable pods from third party sellers, the coffee is still bad and twice as expensive as just grinding your own beans and using a French press like an adult.

They do this shit all the time I remember when France wouldn't help the US invade Iraq the second time because obviously there was no point and W was just a warmongering ass hat. So Tea Party ppl (the MAGA before MAGA) bought French wine and poured it into a river. Giving French vineyards money, that'll show the French government? (Also, remember "freedom fries" absolutely hilariously stupid)
NastyBrutishAndShort
You can't blame them. Without France it's not a real war, just sparkling conflict.
BDBottom
Little known fact: Robert Ney, the Republican (of course) Representative who bullied the House cafeteria into renaming French to Freedom fries and similarly for French toast, went to prison for bribery three years after that stellar piece of politics.
SomeDetroitGuy
She generally plays Gibson J-180s and J-45s which retail for around $4k so I doubt that this was one of her actual tour guitars - they generally auction for over $12k.
mrmartini
I'm gonna be honest, as a fan of Gibson guitars, I'd be pretty annoyed if anyone wrote their name on one mine. Even if the ghost of Les Paul showed up with a sharpie, I'd be like "bro, your name is already on there, I'm good. Took me ten years to afford that thing, no hard feelings."
SomeDetroitGuy
Don't worry. Taylor Swift isn't going around signing random guitars without anyone's permission.
mrmartini
Wait a minute ... why doesn't she play Taylor guitars? Too on the nose?
KumquatKarl
As a fan of guitars in general, I am pretty annoyed every time I see someone smashing one, no matter the reason. You don't want it, gimme.
mrmartini
I know what you mean. My friend broke the headstock off his cheap guitar (accident). Took it to my luthier who refused to work on it as it was a low end Chinese made instrument and he didn't consider it worth the trouble (interesting business practice, but whatever). So I got some hide glue, clamps, and did the repair myself.
Elkarlo77
He maybe he refused the risk. Some of those cheap chinese Guitars only work by sheer luck. When he fixes it and it don't work after the repair, which is a certain chance, he may be blamed. I repaired some wonky "chinese" Special "I knew someone which does PC" in January this year. The PC exploded literally while i was repairing it, more costs (PSU went up) and 6 month later it died again due the overheating. My first words when i saw it was: "China Cracker, i can try to fix it no warranty."
mrmartini
It was the polyurethane finish. Not the first time he's turned down doing wood work on a poly finished instrument. And to be fair, it is a nightmare, but it can be done. He is an incredible luthier and I go to him for a reason, so he's definitely earned the right to be picky.
Elkarlo77
As example what would you say if he clamped down the Head to the Neck and then the Neck splitts down to the Body, because the cheap wood was to dry now as fresh wood maybe used for the neck.
Nacon
You gotta admit, Taylor just created a new source of income. She could just create another one to sell.
Crowlands
The leading source of "I hate Elvis" merch was Elvis's manager.
Now, apparently, he was a pretty shitty guy who could maybe be linked to Elvis having a shortened lifespan... But that is good marketing.
Crowlands
Huh. Someone good at working the capitalist system might be a psychopath who used people until they die... What a shock.
pilomotor
It's funny because it's not like she crafted the guitar herself. She basically just bought a guitar, signed it, and sold it for more money. The only thing stopping her from doing this more often is the diminishing returns due to supply and demand, but that's not even a concern if people buy the guitars just to break them.
RicheTheBuddha
Just imagine if she decided to sell little vials of her bathwater

She regularly puts these up for auction to raise money for charities. This dude probably gave $4k to a charity he doesn't believe in (but she does) so he could performatively smash it.
