Title: Very unusual (Nigel Tufnell) guitar!

Not sure if anyone has seen this or it's been posted before, but I've just noticed a awesome-looking guitar on the Machinehead website:

you've gotta wonder how environmentally-friendly putting 50 days' work into one guitar is...

WTF?!

That's the most gaudy and tasteless guitar I've ever seen.

Did he think he was promoting a message by having that guitar made? It's $%&#ing ridiculous!

Must have cost a fortune too. Add this to the random "I hate Bono and the like for being too rich and too hypocritical for words".

That's the funniest thing I have seen for ages

I love the blackberry compartment with a real blackberry (the fruit)

I'm glad my humour bypass failed !

God I love Spinal Tap :D

Nothing will ever beat Nigel's solo in the first movie, where he plays his guitar using a violin, pauses when he doesn't like what he hears... then tunes the violin. Classic!

Looking at Nigel's last signature model really drives home the irony of the Global Warming model :D

You're not as confused as Nigel, though...
On the other hand, he may, actually, have been taking the p***...

That's probably one of the greatest guitars ever built.

Well, All of Nigel Tufnell's guitars are epic!
