That looks brilliant. So so tempting though Mrs 38th is on the prowl so I'd best go back to my box.

I'm seriously tempted, but the fact that I would probably never actually USE it is, of course, a huge deterrer. :)

I'm not sure i like it. It looks cool i think; but I wouldnt want it - much nicer teles out there. If i played Hic-Rock, then thats the guitar i'd have, to match my prize cow daisy 8)

Yeah I'd do it too but I might get mooed off stage.

Actually I just showed it to Mrs 38th ( the guitar I mean fellas  :wink: ) and surprisingly enough, she liked it.  All I have to do now is butter her up. See, she is not a humourless old dragon after all ( just kidding dear).

OoOoOo.... you went for a dragon simile? i would have gone for a cow one myself; but on second thoughts it wouldn't have helped your chances would it? probably a bit harsh too. Plenty of terrible cow jokes with the 'butter' spring to mind now...

Moooooohh!

I've seen one in faux leopard skin. (That must have been the cheesiest Tele I've ever seen.)

The Cowcaster looks brilliant but I wouldn't want to caught dead with that on stage.

I'd rather have a Sparrow Tele with them cool hot rod flames.

Or real cow skin :)  Then it would match the astounding cowboy hat I picked up in Colombia a few years ago.  It's a little too small, really, but it's, like, hairy -- couldn't resist :)

Cow hair guitar covering ... kinda like those furry ZZ Top guitars, but more organic :)

Doesn't any kind of fabric or leather/skin kill all the resonance and sustain of the guitar?
