Streetly is missing a trick here I think?

Streetly is missing a trick here I think?

Why bother renewing the tapes and making all the electrics work
properly.  Instead, leave it standing in 2" of water for a month or
two.  Drop it out of the back of a Transit van 20 or 30 times.  Roll
it down a flight of stairs.    Pour a couple of cans of Carlsberg into
it.  AND CHARGE MORE FOR THE END RESULT.

My friend and I got a good laugh out of the Joe Strummer Telecaster they 
released some time back - absolutely torn to shit.
