04 Feb 16 - 11:03 PM (#3770667) Subject: 1870's Martin destroyed for a movie From: Wesley S A story from the Reverb website: Story Here Reverb's story "The Hateful Eight" Hates on Six Strings" contains information about the destruction of the priceless 145-years-old instrument that Dick Boak, director of the museum, archives and special projects for C.F. Martin & Co., says the company was not previously aware of. In the film, John Ruth, played by Kurt Russell, grabs a guitar from Daisy Domergue, played by Jennifer Jason Leigh, and smashes it, eliciting horror. However, the smashed guitar was an authentic Martin from the 1870s, on loan from the Martin Guitar Museum, rather than one of several copies on hand for the shoot. "We were informed that it was an accident on set," Boak says. "We assumed that a scaffolding or something fell on it. We understand that things happen, but at the same time we can't take this lightly. All this about the guitar being smashed being written into the script and that somebody just didn't tell the actor, this is all new information to us. We didn't know anything about the script or Kurt Russell not being told that it was a priceless, irreplaceable artifact from the Martin Museum." According to the film's Academy Award-winning sound mixer Mark Ulano, as quoted in SSNInsider.com, the scene was to be shot up to a certain point, a cut made, the guitar swapped out for a double and for the double to be smashed. "Well, somehow that didn't get communicated to Kurt, so when you see that happen on the frame, Jennifer's reaction is genuine," Ulano said, as quoted in SSNInsider.com. As a result of the incident, the company will no longer loan guitars to movies under any circumstances." Further, Boak says that Martin did not offer a replacement, as stated in the SSNInsider.com. "As a result of the incident, the company will no longer loan guitars to movies under any circumstances," Boak says. To add insult to injury, Boak says the guitar was insured for its purchase price, which doesn't reflect its value as an irreplaceable museum artifact. Boak also says that Martin requested that the pieces be returned for a possible restoration, not for inclusion in the Martin Museum as stated in SSNInsider.com. "Upon inspection of the pieces, we realized that the guitar was beyond fixing," Boak said. "It's destroyed." "We want to make sure that people know that the incident was very distressing to us," Boak says. "We can't believe that it happened. I don't think anything can really remedy this. We've been remunerated for the insurance value, but it's not about the money. It's about the preservation of American musical history and heritage." |

So should Tarintino or Kurt Russell man up and pay for the guitar? And SOMEWHERE on line I've seen the video of the guitar being smashed. I've tried to find the clip and can't. But you can see the look on Jennifer Jason Leigh's face when it happens - she was really shocked. |

05 Feb 16 - 08:03 AM (#3770728) Subject: RE: 1870's Martin destroyed for a movie From: gillymor Why didn't Martin send along a babysitter to keep a close eye on the old guitar and if they did why not send a more competent one? They could have had the expense written into the loan contract. Also, with all their skilled luthiers they could have manufactured a very near replica distressed to look like an antique instrument, sold it to the film maker, bought it back and ensconced it in a display case in their museum. The mind boggles. |

08 Feb 16 - 01:52 AM (#3771329) Subject: RE: 1870's Martin destroyed for a movie From: Backwoodsman I couldn't find any mention on the CFM website, and nothing official on the FB page, just mentions in 'guest' postings. I read that six replicas were built for use in the film, but that the actual guitar was used during the shoot, for some inexplicable reason. It would be interesting to hear officially from CFM, but they seem very tight-lipped. Michael, I'm very attracted to a five-string banjo, and I'm thinking I might acquire one, although I have a tenor guitar on the way, and I'll need to get my head (and hands) around that first, and I'm finding that, in my dotage, my musical skills don't transfer as easily as they used to. Perversely (and, according to Mrs. Fenswoman, I am the World Master of The Art of Perversity), despite my dislike of pukuleles (or, more accurately, the current trend for every performer in folk clubs and venues to think they have to include at least one song in every set on which the pukulele is featured), I actually like the banjolele - a much more pleasing sound as far as my ears are concerned. But, hey-ho, it's each to his own, I guess! |

I wouldn't put it past him to have the guitar smashed to garner a little publicity for his newest piece of drivel. I also wouldn't put it past him to concoct a story like this to create some buzz about the film. I can't watch the video. It would be like watching an execution. Guess I'm a sentimentalist, but I think a guitar acquires some soul from every one who plays it, and an old guitar is something more than an object. |

Tarantino has great talent, but to see him wasting it on the Grindcore stuff and comic book-versions of reality such as Django Unchained and Inglourious Bastards is sad. Dusk 'til Dawn might be the single worst film of the last ten years. What happened to the promise shown in Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, when he looked like a blend of Peckinpaugh and the Coen Brothers? He has been encouraged in his worst tendencies through pandering to his audience. As for the guitar, a goddamned shame. I'm not losing sleep over it, if that's what you thought. |

That's in the range of what a new one might cost-a couple of the articles say that there were 6 props made up--it seems to me that if Martin made replicas, those each would have probably cost the same as the vintage that was broken-- I do feel pain for the lost guitar, no matter what it was worth. |

10 Feb 16 - 08:49 PM (#3771939) Subject: RE: 1870's Martin destroyed for a movie From: GUEST,Stim When a movie is in the theaters, and especially when it is up for an Oscar, the studios take every opportunity to to generate media attention. It's worth noting that Dick Boak refused to give any information on either the value of the instrument to Business Insider, who contacted him to confirm the story. If you read this Pre-1900 Martin you'll get some documented information about the actual market value of the pre-1900 Martin parlor guitars--and you'll see that they are not highly valued. You'll also see pictures of the instrument--particularly the neck and headstock--it says that the pre-1900 Martin guitars had a distinctive volute behind the nut(and there is big photo that shows exactly what a volute looks like). There is a place in the video clip where you can see the guitar from the back. There does not appear to be a volute on the guitar in the movie. This would seem to indicate that the guitar smashed in the movie was not a pre-1900 Martin. For the record, I am not an expert of any sort on Martin guitars, but I do know a bit about Hollywood;-) |
