Check out this place I stumbled across!

That's taking steampunk beyond what I've ever seen.

 

[JOLLY]

They look like the guitars that got trashed during the Nashville flood in 2010.

 

[Seashore]

Careful with that finish though! Wouldn't want to mess anything up.

 

[Aceman]

I'm wondering what is on the metal?

 

[Phantasmagoria]

Must've been fun dumpster diving for them...

Said he was using acrylic paint for all of it, which is just plastic and not sturdy against damage at all. You could probably remove the entire paint job in 30 minutes with a butter knife.

Make sure you are up to date on your tetanus shots.

 

[esandes]

the guitars come with a tatanus shot needle

 

[Aceman]

I don't know why he doesn't just clear coat the whole thing. That would give it some protection.

Hope someone does a Youtube on their durability someday.

Somebody would have to buy one first to do that. I seriously can't imagine that happenning.

While I applaud his, or anyone's, creativity, I would never consider buying any of those (either to play or to hang on a wall). I probably wouldn't even accept one if it was given to me...I've already got way too many gorgeous guitars and not enough room for them.

 

[solspirit]

They look like they've been laying in the bilge of an old tugboat.

 

[Aceman]

Art-wise, they are pretty awesome IMO.

That he made them functional is interesting, but like I said - how durable, or not, are they? Can they handle just sitting and playing in street clothes at home?

At $850 for parts casters - yeah...a bit steep for the guitar and for just art.

But cool as hell!

 

[ehdwuld]

they all had that common theme of line on the back and a branch toward the controls

same stencil for all the ones on bottom

the white tele looked cool

all of this could be done to your squire with a spray can and wadded up plastic bag


but yeah Kudos
he did it and you dint

 

[80's_Thrash_Metal]

I think they're cool as shit! You know I'd rock one!

 

[Seashore]

This kind of look would actually fit really well for the band I play bass with, if we ever get back on stage, but the idea of having to be extra careful that I don't wear off the worn-looking stuff on the hardware seems like too many layers of goofiness for me. Maybe I should do this with my Steinberger though. It's already halfway there.

 

[Aceman]

I think they're cool as ****! You know I'd rock one!

You'd rock the paint right off of it...

 

[soulforger]

Reminds of Jake E Lee's "Patina" Charvel, I'm sure his plays amazingly though! ​​​​​

 

[ICTGoober]

I think they're ugly.
