...it's the new the Swiss-Army acoustic guitar: one-model does-it-all, bass to 12-string, to mandolin, etc.

...and the DEVIL said: "...yes, but it's a DRY heat!"

Yep, I saw that.

the link:

http://www.oddmusic.com/gallery/om23350.html

(from the website):
"Created by luthier Linda Manzer for guitarist Pat Metheny, the instrument took 2 years to build (approximately 1000 hours), and when the 42 strings are strung up to high tension, the Pikasso is under approximately 1000 lbs pressure. It weighs 6.7 kg or 14 3/4 lbs.

Four necks. Two sound holes. 42 strings. Two access doors; one on the upper player's side and one at the tail block.

The body is tapered so that the side closest to the player is thinner than the side that rests on the players knee, thus leaning the top back towards the player for a more aerial view. This is also more comfortable under the player's arm."

...mine is a "...love lost..."-guitar situation.

...I'd just like to have back the 1968 natural-finish ES-345TDN/SVT that I once owned and stupidly sold many years ago (darn!).

...and the DEVIL said: "...yes, but it's a DRY heat!"
