Well, this showed up for sale on our local classifieds today.
Apparently it “looks and plays great”
Maybe this is a good domestic replacement tone wood?
Maybe Elvis hasn’t left the building.
Hopefully it wasn’t any of you guys...

Maybe it was owned by "The Gimp" from Pulp Fiction. Or the dentist from Little Shop of Horrors. Or whoever played guitar in Sha Na Na.

So much for not getting zippers anywhere near the finish...

Looks like a lot of work went into it. I wonder if it's a one off or if it's actually something that can be bought.

Maybe it was built for an episode of MTV's Unplugged with The Ramones, but the episode never aired.
