Cosmetics mean nothing. Playability and tone are all that counts.

In my humble experience whether it is a gun or a guitar or many other tools the most important aspect is the ability of the wielder of the tool.
I have done many gigs with homely guitars and basses that I cobbled together. The audience didn't care.
I got to know many boutique luthiers in my career and they all said that after a certain price point It became all about cosmetics.

Looking at the saddles it can’t be intimated correctly. That photo makes my brain hurt …
Like the Gibson Hummingbird? The Martin D45?

Those little steel string Stellas, are great for slicing cheese, eggs and fingertips.
The saddles are adjustable so that is not where the intonation problem occurs. It is that the 6th string appears to have nothing under it at the bridge to rest upon.
Waaaaaaay overpriced acoustics.
Been some beautiful music made on ugly guitars. Willie Nelson's Trigger for example. SRV's Strat, nicknamed "Second Wife" was held together with spit and prayers. Chris Stapleton often plays an acoustic that looks as if it was dragged behind a truck. And Tommy Emmanuel's guitars quickly lose that new look. But none of them are as bad looking as that one. Not sure if even Chet Atkins could make that one sing.
