Martin Guitar Unveils the D-16E Rock the Vote Special Edition Model (https://www.premierguitar.com/articles/29678-martin-guitar-unveils-the-d-16e-rock-the-vote-special-edition-model)

Yes, I'm sure young potential voters will rush out and buy a $2800 Martin with David Crosby's face on it. Will they even know who he is?

A little early for April fools, isn't it?

They had a 'Woodstock model make of counter tops too.
Honestly they sound okay but make Dan Armstrong look like Picasso.

Some comments from a thread at TDPRI:

"What young person doesn't want David Crosby's wrinkly face on his guitar?"

"the nut is lubricated with hippy tears."

"Well ...naturally.. I've always associated David Crosby with the Bill Of Rights.."

I love it! A guitar with Hulk Hogan on it. Need that in my life.

I thought I was among experts here, but the fact you all don't know Hulk and don't appreciate him, makes me sad.

Hulk doesn't look that bad!

In the mid-70s, before he was Hulk, he played bass in a Tampa Bay band called Ruckus.

The most 'ok boomer' guitar I've ever seen.
