Odd guitar design suggestion

[Roobubba]

I also don't see how a couple of extra bits of wood could help with the neck tension compared to, say, 3- or 5-piece laminated wood in the neck with truss rod and support rods...
A single plank on its own simply won't be as strong!

Very true.

You will have to let me in on the joke or I may commision bob to make if for me and as it would be for my wife it would have pink dragons !!! -- he does say guitars made to your exact requirements  :lol:

Despite some of the less conventional stuff I may have built to date (it's good experience...right) I do have a "taste threshold" and I think what you are proposing may just fall outside if that.

Favourite comment of the week, thanks Bob!

But what if the commision was worth £10k every luthier has a price that will take him beyond his/her taste threshold :)

So if I asked you to construct me a  battle axe that conveniently enough can be used as a guitar as well........would that fall outside your "taste threshold?" Here's a pic for reference -

IIRC correctly feline did an axe bass

someone build something like this, but mount an actual laser sight on it or something, so you can aim riffs at people with pin point accuracy
