Unique guitars

[skolacki]

This must be some kind of travel guitar. This baseball player does the anthem on it with an Orange amp. Love it.

Laptop parts guitar.

How about this one (had it with me during my 2.5-month stay at the hospital back in 2005)...

Also, in my book, every single Parker Fly (Deluxe, Classic, Mojo etc.) falls into the "unique guitar" category.

Sweet. The body reminds me of a woman's back as she is sitting with her knees drawn up and facing away from you. Very artistic.

Dang... Now I keep seeing woman azz crack at the bottom of the guitar ...

Once you see it, you can't "unsee" it! I really meant it as a compliment. It's a very artistic spin on the LP form.

My bandmates call this my Dr. Suess guitar.

Here is a video the builder shot before sending the instrument. It has Bare Knuckle VHII pickups.

So here's a carbon fiber guitar that caught my eye awhile back. This was an offering by XOX Audio Tools. It's called "The Handle". The pickups are DiMarzio.

Yeah! It weighs around four pounds. I would like to actually hold one because I suspect it may suffer from neck dive at that weight.

I hated it at first but it grows on you. I hated the tele first sight too.

You know I have come to really appreciate Tyler guitars, just fantastic made things, so i bought another 82 like the one Schon got, excellent guitar...
and I am with Andy, i really really like the headstock, great design, i more dislike the softer curve ones like on Suhr or anderson, the Tyler reminds me of my best Pal, its like an upside down dogs head!

It's not that shape that bugs me so much, though I'm not actually a fan of it, it's all the repetitions of his name. Super cheesy looking visually, and comes off like standing in the middle of the street with bullhorn shouting it. IMO, YMMV, yadda.

James Tyler is not like that at all. It came about when he was modding other peoples guitars, he would just run the strip of names over the existing decal. Then it became a reaction to people asking for a strat head. This is a guy who did the Joe X brand with "made in America by assholes" on the head.

Beautiful pup!

Wow man those are not cheap. I like the headstock but one James Tyler instead of 8 would look cleaner.

Here’s my Emerald Amicus. I don‘t really know how to describe it as it’s a bit larger than a mandolin but tuned like a regular 12-string (although much higher). It’s a lot of fun to play and sings wonderfully. Since it’s an odd scale, I’m using it for an original songs project.

I played one of these before. Man was it fun! Yes kinda like a mini 12 string.
A store in Chicago carried them, like ~12 years ago.
