Topic: A guitar with a difference!

I thought you might like to see this.

My friend Howard bought a battered, well past it's best, much abused and totally useless guitar from a flea market for next to nothing. It was not suitable to repair and re-sell in the shop as a playable guitar so after many hours this is what he ended up with:

That looks like it would be fun.  I have to keep my eye out for a similar old dog of a guitar.  The sky's the limit.  Justin and Miley would be proud.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.

Re: A guitar with a difference!

And now he still has a useless, unplayable guitar! I'm just picking. I think it took a lot of talent and imagination. You don't count the time in a labor of love. I give it a thumbs up!

Re: A guitar with a difference!

Very cool!  What brand WAS the guitar before he did this?  I wonder if the pictures were sent into the original manufacturer if they'd like to purchase it back for a museum piece or something.  Very excellent job!!

Art and beauty are in the eyes of the beholder.
What constitutes excellent music is in the ears of the listener.

Re: A guitar with a difference!

Without a doubt you guys are talented! Never would have thought to do a project

like that. Right Amy-it should be in a guitar museum or on the cover of a guitar

magazine and or both.

Our intuitions serve us well
