Pretty awesome but looks like they start at $3K +

Would love to rent one for an hour or so, I have two guitars to refinish.

I'd like to see how it does on an Asian guitar with a thick poly finish.

I've seen the same or similar laser systems advertised for removing rust from machine tools.

It's pretty mesmerizing to watch and I have to admit it makes me desire to have one.
