"It's a really cool-looking guitar because it's smashed and held together with duct tape and Kurt Cobain wrote on it," McMurray said.

Pieces of history man :D

If the signal was recorded when he smashed it, it probably would have sounded like the rest of their music.

You mean Awesome? yea, I'd have to agree. If nothing else, Kurt could sure put shine on shit;)

Good luck dying alone in a gutter. That's what happens to people who hate on things that are popular just because they're popular.

Just venturing a guess here, but perhaps he's hating on Nirvana because any 15 year old kid could pick up a guitar and be playing all their songs 2 weeks later?

Any 9 year old can play a Bach CD, WTF is your point?

Musicians are respected for CREATING music, not playing it. If it's easy to play, it just makes it that much more impressive that they were the first ones to create it.

*sigh* Look, that may be true. The real question is who the fuck cares? I'm a metal head by heart and love me some good guitar work, but that doesn't mean I'm so short sighted that I can't appreciate anything that doesn't cause bleeding fingers. Nirvana was pretty catchy and pretty much wrapped up an entire generation with their sound. You don't have to like them, but the least you can do is respect a group who has achieved more success than everybody in your family that's living today combined. I can't stand the Beatles, but they were the shit back in the day for a reason. That doesn't mean they suck, it just means I don't like them.

When you come into a thread about a busted guitar and your first post is 'the group that used this guitar sucks' you're a trolling prick. If you don't expect some backlash from ATOT when you troll then there's no hope for you.

You could make the same argument for Britney Spears. Wouldn't change the fact she is manufactured garbage.

I'd say so too. We've already forgotten about spears, and her music isn't really topping the charts anymore. She sparked, fizzled, and died with pop and boy bands. Nirvana got popular maybe a decade before Britney, and they're still popular. And don't blame Kurt offing himself on that, as if he didn't they would have put out more albums and they'd be even fresher in our minds.
