The ultimate *minimalist* guitar?


Recommended Posts

BTW, the Gittler guitar has six pickups, one for each string. I think mine sounds like a Strat in the middle pickup position, FWMOW. One of the latter sonic tests was thru a blackface Super Reverb, which seemed to validate such an opinion.

The Gittler tuners' patents were involved (as a defendant's exhibit, IIRC) in some kind of patent litigation between competing headless guitar companies some time ago, IIRC

When not being played, it can be used as an outdoor VHF TV antenna... ;)

I think I remember seeing Andy Summers playing a Gittler in a Police video, once. I've always been curious to see if it "works". I mean, holding onto THAT?

Oil Can Guitars!

Instant flashback to the basement of my childhood home in Dayton, Ohio, in the early 70s where my father had (and used) these exact cans of oil to keep his (leaky) British motorcycles running and the old Mercury Comet on the road.

Thanks for the memory!
