The hardware looks worn on the tuning heads, the weathered brass looks tarnished. A stupid price to pay for this guitar but it would be cool to see how they distress the guitars and put the age to them. How is this guitar a limited edition of 100 but this one is numbered 101 ? Check out the link and scroll through the pics.

I remember reading the the serial # are random (so the # could be 200 etc) so that certain guitars don't become more valuable than others....pretty sure kelly said that
