Jimmy also said he bougth an older guitar in Paris at an antique Guitar shop and had it worked on, but I think he said it is a resonator.

It is cracking me up, that once they attach an artist's name to a guitar, it dramatically changes the price.

Why? Because you know guitars and the layman doesn't?
If I saw Yo Yo Ma playing a certain brand of cello
and I was in the market .... I could see that cello increasing
in popularity and value.
If Warren Buffett thinks a stock or investment
is worthwhile ... the value goes up.
If a world famous chef is seen dining in a particular restaurant
I'd certainly consider doing the same, even if that raised its
popularity and prices.

take it easy dude, and yes if you are a experienced guitar player you should know the value of a guitar over a layman. Cant let those dancing pirates get to you.

I thought Jimmy got a new ukelele in Maui, not a guitar. That is why he started playing Swingin' Hula Girl. However, having said that, that certainly does look like a new guitar. And what about the guitar Mack is playing. I plead guilty to not paying as much attention to Mack's guitars, but that looks different than Mac's usual ones.

In Tampa he played the Uke he got in Hawaii and the resonator (bright red in color) he got in Paris. Guess he is on a buying streak....lol
