The Handle - Pretty odd looking guitar
« on: January 23, 2008, 06:53:58 PM »
Has anyone played one of these yet?

The Handle seems a pretty cr@p name but I'd like to try one.

If it didn't have a neck on it, I'd probably look twice thinking it was a steering wheel.

yeah, it looks like its mostly made from carbon fibre in a similar way to a gus.

i would be interested to know how it balances with the body being as slim as it is

I don't know whether it is comparably ugly but here is an equally retarded looking guitar:

you guys are off!  its one of the coolest guitars ive ever played and its super sexy!
I was at NAMM and couldnt keep my eyes off it, and couldnt beleive its sound and playability.
I just saw on guitar jam daily that it won the most Innovative product Award from Namm, I guess that confems my opinion, check it out yourselves!

was on a carbon fibre guitar binge the other week, found a few videos on youtube, not many, but the all carbon no wood ones didn't sound right to me, something missing, a bit lifeless maybe couldn't put my finger on it, but then that could be bad videos

the Vigier guitars with the carbon fibre (I think) strip on the back of the neck look interesting, bfoot signature has no truss rod, no idea about the rest

I think it looks great and judging from this clip it sounds good too.
