I'm speechless. Hate to shoot down another person's work, but c'mon!

The funny thing is that they can actually do some R&D, add truss, adjustable bridge, hook, stereo option and offer an actually playable tapper in $500 range.

I'm assuming you clicked thru to see the other items he's selling? There are some rather , uh, interesting instruments... Probably not built well and more then likely won't last long - but interesting in any case....

This seems like a small run (10 instruments) to test the waters. If they manage to sell them well, I guess they will refine it and they might achieve a reasonable instrument in the near future... Well this was somehow inevitable, it was just a matter of time.

Perhaps for the 10-string bass - but he has 178 guitars listed with various quantities of each listed. Some of the designs are interesting though I don't know how functional they are (I don't know how one plays a Harp-guitar...suppose I could YouTube it...)

Some crazy stuff for sure.

Chinese- Stick, Gibson, Fender and PRS copies,(lots of copyright infringements) plus quite a few exotics.

The PRS knockoffs even have the bird inlay fret markers.

Of any 2 of the same instruments, one may be perfectly playable, and the other may have a noodle neck and bad frets.

Also having shipped a Stick from the US to Australia, shipping a $350 guitar from China to the US, the shipping will cost as much, if not more than the guitar!

The click through to the other instruments looks like something out of a B Horror Movie - attack of the 2 (and 3) headed guitar monsters. :lol:
