the 8 string is the only one that doesn't make me want to vomit. the other two are just fancy shelves :p

I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways,
we could reverse the particle flow through the gate.
We'll cross the streams.

If it had a normal body without those stupid pyramids, i'd agree wholeheartedly, but as it is, i can't much see the point in any of those...but...

this is nice!

I believe the guy from Muse has that one now (or a very similar one) with a bridge pickup installed on it too.

That Gibson thing looks like it's meant to be an electric harp, not a guitar.

That last guitar looks a lot like a Furlanetto Bass.

The others?

WTF?

Those basses are nice. I knew a bassist who played one a NAMM once, he said they were the nicest basses he ever played.

I don't see the resemblence much.

I think electric-guitar-harps are kind of stupid, but whatever.

The book I got those pictures from says Paul Evans owns the guitars. I don't know who the hell Paul Evans is, but he must be very rich. Maybe we should get him to fund a "Get EMG to make a standard size 707 or 81/7 campaign."

I have that book. The Gibson one is actually meant to be an electric harp in the design of a guitar.
