    What do you think of the looks and sound of this pre-war Martin 000-42? Let us know in the comments! 👇

      That really has a rich sound, so much so that you can practically see the trees it was made from.

      I’m thinking that collectors that are not celebrities never get a chance at these gems. Joe just happened to get this 39 000-42 and his 41 000-45 from two different Guitar Centers. He must always be at the right place at the right time. Would be nice to leave some of these rare instruments for normal non- celebrities who can never buy these from these musicians because money is not a motivating factor and have no way of contacting them to even ask. I saw the “coming soon” on this guitar in IG. Problem is, it never came. I would have purchased this.

    I gotta give this poor kid credit for his success. But he is completely one of these individuals that gain the whole world and he's about to lose his soul
    To be a follower of Christ, you have to be born again,
    Or born from above
    Not an earthly birth, but a spiritual birth
    Only the Sovereign
    Immutable God
    Can cause this to happen
    Jesus says that He draws people to the Father
    And vice versa
    And we have to realize that we are filthy. No good for nothing sinners
    I see, now what the catholics have a problem with
    in their doctrine,
    Among many other things that are wrong
    But the statement Joe made, is that if you take care of the Martin. And play it
    It will outlast him two hundred years
    We are not only living in the last days
    Look at how upside down our world is even the cataclysmic weather patterns
    We're living in the final hours
    How am I so confident? Well let's go two contrasts,
    The globalist says that by 2030. You will not own anything, but you will be happy"
    That's six years away
    Look at the current war with Israel,
    Cause of the old prophecy of ezekiel, thirty eight
    They have to recoup from this war. And live in peace and safety
    So how are they gonna go through all this now? Iran is now starting to get involved
    And live in peace and safety and recover from this???
    Got any clues???
    Well, I would say it would have to be that one world government foolish shepherd called the antichrist
    Which will deceive the world and make peace so supernatural
    The jews build their third temple and start sacrificing animals again
    Or the LORD JESUS
    RETURNS
    for His church
    based on
    The unsynoptopic gospel
    The gospel of john chapter fourteen
    And there are other passages we can go, but I think this will give you the point
    Christ will return for His church
    The born from above believers
    Those are the true followers of Christ all over the world,
    They're not a building or a big giant meeting place
    They are a collective community of true believers and followers of Christ
    They realize they're no good. They're sinners they need Jesus
    And they have cut a covenant with their God for forgiveness
    By placing their trust in the almighty in the work He's down on the cross
    Nearly two millennials
    Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures,
    He was buried and rose again on the third day, according to the scriptures"
    That simple gospel
    Has transformed lives all over the world
    For the last two thousand years
    got CHRIST???
    ITS HELL WITHOUT
    HIM
