Did he actually travel to the gig like that?
I mean, that's pretty strange.

Well, not with the guitar strapped on, duh! :D

He was waiting for the guitarist/vocalist to pick him up.

My wife thinks he looks more like mid-90s era Paul Westerberg there...

He's actually 23 and a (temporary!) basement dweller.  The band (EMOTiO) definitely has a certain fashion sensibility - not sure if that is one of his velvet jackets or one of the dark paisley ones.   They're putting the finishing touches on their EP now - it's kind of a jazz/metal/surf/trippy fusion thing.  They're cool live, but I could do without the sax, personally.

Dang, Fretty! There's something ya don't see evah day. Racer X!

Lefty, too! What's the story on this one?

The only one in existence! (to my knowledge :ph34r:)

Anyway, it was my summer 2015 project. A reclaimed RG neck grafted on a body I made, with a spray bomb finish that turned out way better than it should have.

But I really screwed the pooch on the placement of the toggle switch tho....

Sounds like my kind of thing.   I have played in similar fusion bands myself and had a ball!

My dad's friend makes some crazy sculpted guitars, which are usually a lot crazier than the one I have. He makes a few with carved mythical beasts, star destroyers, and nekkid ladies.

It's quite uncanny how he looks like John Lennon in this picture.

John Lennon is the main reason I had to have a Rickenbacker..

There was a guitar which was a fat woman. I think it was made in Germany, either Hoffner or Hoyer. I found it weird as heck. I don’t think someone of us owns it, but I would love to see a pic of that aberration again —it’s up there with the Wangcaster in weirdness and bad taste. Do you guys know which one I’m talking about? Any pics? I fail to find it using Google. :(

It’s listed as a “Short Horn” Phantom in the log books.  Came that way from the factory.  A little SG-ish. Lots of weirdness on this one for 1986-Floyd on a Phantom, factory EMGs, Slanted fingerboard end, etc...
