The pickups are wrong.

How much does it weigh? 😜🫣🤩

I wonder if it will spew guitar picks out of the headstock every hour on the hour to the plaza below...

And pretend to play itself in between spewing guitar picks

Is it just me, or are the fret markers just a tad bit off center?

Don't forget about its 'acoustic voice', too!

I'm not sure how many sources there are for giant pickup and knobs, but would it have been that hard to get

them painted checkerboard too?

No, but i hear the slot machines will shoot out guitar picks when a player hits a payout.

What's the deal with that checkerboard guitar he's playing in that video?  I can't see the headstock, but it has dot inlays instead of bowties.

Answered my own question:  It's a Gibson.  Oh, the irony!  Lol

After owning 7-watt and 21-watt Fuchs amps, I cannot conceive of how incredibly loud that would be!
