Thank you for sharing this exciting news! The fact that Martin Guitars, a family-owned and well-respected company, has hired a new CEO and is embracing Bitcoin and blockchain technology by releasing a limited edition Bitcoin guitar is truly a remarkable development for the cryptocurrency industry. As more and more companies and industries begin to see the potential of Bitcoin and the blockchain, we will undoubtedly see more innovative and creative use cases emerge. This is a clear indication that the future is now, and I am excited to see where this newfound adoption of Bitcoin will take us moving forward. Once again, thanks for sharing this valuable information with me!
Lol. Hello, bot.

What if... hear me out... We're in a timeline where US Senator Elizabeth Warren is secretly a Bitcoiner but is constantly spreading FUD to help keep the price suppressed so all the OGs can accumulate. Lol. I know. But still. I want to live in this timeline. 😁😎

After the debacle with the US Government, political donations, and Gibson Guitar Company, I'm a little surprised it took this long for a iconic guitar company to take a bit of a stance. That being said, I've never really wanted a Martin until now.
Oh, I don't know a lot about Martin's socio-political history. I just know they've made some legendary instruments. I'm curious to know more about the family and company... I have a Yamaki myself if you've heard of them. Equivalent Japanese lawsuit Era knockoffs. Yes, I too like the forward SIGNAL and the bold stance they're taking. The only thing missing is them accepting BTC as payment for it.
I'm not sure about Martin's history. But I grew up near the Bill Monroe Bluegrass park (where Bill Monroe lived and worked with all of the original Blugrass players) and Martins were everywhere. My reference is to what happened when the President of Gibson Guitar Company donated to the Republican Party when Obama won the Presidency. The US Federal Government unleased regulators to attack Gibson. It reached the point in which the US government wad accusing Gibson of illegally using protected lumber from India while the Indian government was publicly and formally that Gibson was entirely legal in their purchase of that lumber. At several points, it looked like Gibson was going to be forced out of business and, at points, had to shut down US production. For a couple of years it looked very much like Gibson was going to be forced out of business.

The comments on the Instagram post are pretty harsh. I think the guitar looks amazing.
Yeah. Inactually don't exactly like the design. But the fact that the company hired a family outsider and decided this was an important initiative is pure signal.

What if we're in a timeline where she's a time-traveling bitcoiner who did it all because she wanted the Bitcoin guitar?
I laughed out loud. 😄😆 too funny man. Best comment I've read in a while. Senator Warren the Blues Guitar playing, Bitcoin loving cool cat. 🤫🤭😵💫 Yeah right.

Would you rather have this limited edition (100 total) Martin Bitcoin guitar for $18,999 or 0.677BTC? 🎸 🎵 #[0]
I love it. “A nod to the latest global currency” 🔥🔥🔥

I spent $40 on my guitar that I have had over a decade, but I stack sats every week, so there's your answer.

I’ll take the SATs…..

I don’t play guitar, but my wife was super happy with a pretty basic Fender I gifted her, so I’d go with bitcoins and a normie guitar. I would gift such a guitar to Sting if I were wealthy and knew he would play it at his next concert 😉

You have only one life so if you like it buy it because if you strongly stack your BTC you don't believe you can earn it one again and one again until you feel satisfied
That’s a tough one. Life is more than sats and I love music and it’s a beautiful guitar. If I had an extra $19K just sitting around today I’d probably buy the sats because I have guitars to play music. And in a few years a fraction of those sats will buy that guitar so then I’d have the guitar and still most of those sats 😁

Agree … I’ll wait a few minutes, then spend the same amount of sats for a new acoustic axe + a house & car. Anyway, I have too many guitars already!
🤣🤝
True. I think it's Martin signaling that they're paving the future too... more than building an amazing guitar. If you know what I mean. It's a statement.
Same.
