...a geetar with AIR SCOOPS!

http://contest.aristidesinstruments.com/

Probably needs 'em to cool the extra hot pickups...

Well it does have jumbo frets

I actually kind of like it. It's obviously built for "rockers".

"Let me introduce you to the brand new Aristides 010.
This guitar is one of a kind due to it’s unparalleled sustain, superlative resonance . . . Enter our contest and maybe you’ll be a proud owner of this unique guitar!"

Wow, that's a lot of hype for a one-off!

If I read this correctly, you could be one of an unlimited number of owners of this unique guitar . . .

That's almost as annoying as a guitar with a built-in carrying handle.

The air scoops help you run across the stage better with the guitar.

It's cool...in a cute sort of way.

I like the video demo - I like the sound.

One thing's for sure, if you drop your pick in it, you won't be shaking it around upside-down as much as with a Rick!

Okaaaay...

Funny, I've never had a problem with dropping my pick into my Rick...

Of course, they're all 4001/4003/4004 models...

And I don't use picks...

Gimmicky, but I agree with Robert, I like the sound. The clean stuff had very nice mellow tones.

+1, ditto here. I'd try one. Interesting concept-scoops-tubes, instead of a semi hollow chamber.
