I saw that Duesenberg guitar at the NAMM show too,but while it does have some probably intended similarities to RIC guitars, I don't think any of them are close enough to be called infringement. Now the 12 string headstock they have may be another matter.

Well, that thing above is lacking in any sort of design continuity.

Why, oh why, doesn't the industry get hip, design-wise? It ain't like the '50s, when you could come up with a classic design, simply because no one had been there before.

Geez, the Harm needs a bigger soundhole... it has more hole than wood, it seems...
