They have them in the window of Mccarris (spelling) shop on Charing cross road.

I think an SG woud look cool in that style and an explorer in that style would make a great implement for removing stage invaders.

Hey how about a pitchfork guitar that would be suitably gothic

Keith Richards once claimed in an interview that the Telecaster has the best curves for hooking round stange invaders heads and sending them back into the crowd. I guess the man knows what he's talking about :)

What were those guitar around about 10 years ago that looked like a Fender Strat build be Salvador Dali?  They looked all drippy and mented.  They were called Benders or something like that.

It's like those melted fiesta-strats of yore. Funny to look at, not a serious item.

Me thinks....

hehe - we all lust for a tele.
I've seen them before aswell - really not practical with the control where they are. if it had a lefty body then i'd be more tempted. More tempted doesn't mean i'd EVER get one though  :?

/\ bender distortocasters? apparently they were really good, no problems with action or intonation that you would probably expect with a weird design...

If you're used to hollow bodies or western acoustics, this one won't be too difficult.

-My eyes still hurt from beholding that ...
 I'm still in shock.
-Found myself,again, though...
Remembering why it's  important that I do what I do,
-follow the recipe, make pointy, evil things...
_Does it cost less if you put it together properly?
-must take a lot of extra work to make such an absurd monstrosity...
-I stand amazed ( and that doesn't happen, much...)
musical clown props?- Damn.
-Drac ( has to lie down...)
