Personally I would never buy a guitar based on pictures. There's just too many things that could be wrong with it that a uneducated person would not see or worse, divulge. Plus, you can't hear how it sounds through the pictures and that's where it's really at. If the guitar is beat up so what? To me that usually means it was loved/played on a daily basis. So many people gasp at the site of a guitar that has a scratch/wear here or there and they think a guitar should always be in pristine condition. It's like a pinball machine, the more it was played the more it was loved and worn down to the wood. If I posted pictures of my guitars some guys would probably think there junk, but to me it shows my years of loving to play.

Yes it's probably the most famous guitar in history, it's priceless. I'm sure someday it will sit in Willie's museum down in Nashville. When that happens that guitar should never be played again as there is nobody that could play it in the same way that Willie does.
