Psychobilly keeps Gretsch in the black deze daze, not to mention a plethora of tattoo parlors in the East Hamptons and Oceanside...

(banging her head against the wall) I WANT TO SEE SOMEBODY WHO BOUGHT THIS KIND OF... er... thing...

So far, Sheena, he hasn't sold diddly-squat and despite running several eBay auctions with price tags (on other creations) ranging from $2K to--gasp!--$6K US, he has had not one bid. Yet he keeps on "creating".

This is called bullheadedness. The only metaphors I can think of right now are political, so I'll refrain.

Oh... that makes me happy, Paul. When my daughter saw this "eagle", she thought it's a good idea to make such kind of thing from polymer clay, and currently she's tryin' to... uh... reproduce it in polymer clay herself... clearly if she tries to sell it on ebay, the price would be much lower...

He's gonna be a..."POORMAN"

Again, I'd pay maybe $150 for the Bigsby. Seriously!
I should make an offer.

Duh... an UNBELIEVABLE h.o.d!!!!!!!! Too bad if it was a good guitar before "designing" work was done...

This has GOT to be a joke......right? Is the builder blind or maybe he doesn't have arms? How's that Who song go?
"That deaf, dumb and blind kid....sure builds a dumb guitar!"

It wouldn't surprise me that some idiot might see it and decide that it is pure

The more i look at these "works", the more i'm sure it is a kid playing with polymer clay... duh.

That would have to be the most amateurish, flaw-ridden piece of **** ever to be passed of as a guitar! IT'S DEFORMED!!. mvpgretsch deserves a pat on the back..... with a Mack truck!!

Looks like using it could be a bit of a 'strain'...
