Didn't Fred Flintstone play one of those?

I bought a couple of shirts at a music festival once but who spends over a grand at one? Imagine stashing that in the tent overnight! Strangely though, I quite like it.

How on earth is that electro-acoustic?

It's a bit like a Polo mint. The body has a big hole in it, the beige bit in the middle is some sort of crappy melamine cover for it, and there's a slightly better-looking bit of wood (or simulated grain melamine) covering the back of the cavity. If only he'd used some pretty wood on the middle bit, that would have been gorgeous. Mind you, it's only got four strings so I wouldn't have been tempted.

Not sure about the bass, but I like the band (link provided in ad): [url="http://www.myspace.com/bofanost"]http://www.myspace.com/bofanost[/url]

In all fairness, it's probably quilted melamine or swamp melamine or something.

It looks like the wooden equivelant ot the Tokai Talbo with a narrow Dean headstock
