i like bastien's choice of words in this one. he puts it as if his fanbase bought him this exorbitant gift, he would be sharing it with everyone who paid for him to have it. also "wood".

Primitive should be out in front of this. Bad PR making it look like they're not paying any better than Toy Machine.

edit: Honestly, if I ran a company, i'd have it written into every contract that any begging on the internet immediately terminates your sponsorship.

It has nothing to do with primitive how anyone spends their money, if he’s blown it all that’s his problem

Does he need to send money to the needy or buy himself a guitar?

I never thought I'd wish he'd stayed kooked out of the industry, but here I am..

Hate to break it to you, Bastien, but even the most expensive guitar in the world will not make your hackneyed, wannabe Jack Johnson songs sound good.

Yo you should hear his rendition of "Daughters" on this beast, son.

Why does he keep saying ours? Even if I fly to Paris with my receipt, I don't think he'll let me play it.

Kinda want to know who bought all the other ones now.

I could see asking the internet to help buy you a guitar if you were a touring musician and your gear got stolen or something tragic like that, but even then something at this price is still ridiculous. Only big name musicians and lawyers play those kind of guitars and Bastian isn't either.

lesserredpanda · « **Reply #40 on:** December 30, 2019, 04:41:55 PM »

shame to see it go this way. dude sounds like an entitled fuck wit. i like his napkin math of dividing the cost of want he wants by the number of followers he has. dude's got a case of the baby brain.

Esmith5488 · « **Reply #41 on:** December 30, 2019, 04:58:05 PM »

But isn’t he on primitive ? If they are not paying him enough to get that guitar than he can’t afford it. I don’t ask people on the internet to pay for shit I want

Whoever said companies should build a no money begging clause in their contract is right, except for like serious real emergency’s not because they want something they can’t afford

Mouth · « **Reply #42 on:** December 30, 2019, 04:58:17 PM »

I'll cover the entire cost. But only if he switches genre to that yngwie malmsteen shit. The kids in Africa demand it.

GAY · « **Reply #43 on:** December 30, 2019, 05:05:53 PM »

The more I think about it, the more strange it seems that Primitive doesn't gift all of their riders with an $8k guitar on the same day that their "Welcome to the team" part drops. What a bunch of cheap asses.

Betaphenylethylalamine · « **Reply #44 on:** December 30, 2019, 05:15:18 PM »

What is happening here? Is he going to feed the children of africa this guitar?

Why did he tag rob dyrdek and Spencer Hamilton?

Is he of primitive?

On coke?

JB · « **Reply #45 on:** December 30, 2019, 05:24:03 PM »

People in his comments seem like they're willing to donate. Maybe I just try this. The guitar I want is only like $600, or only $6 a piece for my 100 or so followers.

What guitar do you want ?

Ok, so which one of us is going to DM him and promise to pay off the rest of the balance if he sends us $2k first? If he's doing it for the kids in Africa (clearly he's not) I think a little Nigerian scam might be in order.

ColinYourAssOut · « **Reply #49 on:** December 30, 2019, 06:19:38 PM »

I'd really like some fancy expensive shit, too, anyone willing to contribute to my Patreon and make my dreams reality?

Exactly.

I feel like people can be divided into two groups, those who are self-aware and those who are not.

I disliked him in the Flip days (he's like Derek Zoolander - he's not an ambiturner). Then I started rooting for him as the weird comeback underdog when he got on Primitive/went to Street League etc.

Now I dislike him more than ever.

His brain has to be fried to do something like this in the first place - his own convoluted logic makes sense to him, so I'm sure he'd have a perfectly resonable explanation.

Growing up, on every street, there's always one asshole kid who tries to pull off the ye olde, "Hey everyone, let's chip in for this bike! It's ours but has to stay in my garage!"

Those guitars are expensive. So is recording. People often sell their gear to pay for studio time. I’m guessing he just got this fender custom shop made AND shipped overseas and since he’s recording something he doesn’t want to lose his guitar.

It's not 2004. Recording is not expensive. And nothing he is going to write/record would justify either real studio time, or felching a moronic fanbase to pay for a dadrock guitar.

If he gave a shit about playing and recording he'd play whatever works wherever he could record it. He clearly just wants a nice toy. Own it. His 'audience' isn't going to hear the 'hand oiled tone woods' of his midlife crisis.

What would make a guitar cost eight thousand fucking dollars? Did they dig it out of Jimi Hendrix’s coffin?
