What do you guys think of these..... http://www.myspace.com/554574284

I made a couple and took them to the local artisan's market and people went batsh*t over them.

The two I have on the page (very rough page, I just put it up) are fret less and 3 stringed, but I'm putting frets on the next one and 4 strings.

I'm also planning a bass, ukulele, and a cigar box amp...

It's been fun, and I'm open to any suggestions....

And as the old saying goes.....I'm sure they're worth every penny....

Look at the thing....it looks like a 3rd grader got a hold of his daddy's drill and started drilling holes.....and look at the neck scale....



People couldn't believe I was selling them that cheap.....

Well they look like sh*t, and the necks are little stumps. But Knock yourself out if that's what you want.

But I'd never sell anything that looked like that, and I have to charge more for the time I put into them, and frankly I'm not worried about it. I charge a fabulous price for a high quality instrument.....

Lot of people are looking into alternative instruments to add to their entertainment value.

I think it's kind of cool.
From musical saws, to old shine jugs.

Tony likes dinking with stuff like that. even produced his own didgeridoo.

My hands are plenty full of guitar at the moment.

I've heard of a way to make a talkbox with a pringle can, some tubing, and a roll of duct tape. Whyone else know anything about this? sounds like fun.

A fan of my music made one custom for me and shipped it to me. He sells them for $120 or $185 for an electric.
