    BTW, the guitar being played in the clip upside down is the exact guitar for sale. Compare the neck grain...

    I was looking at getting a similar guitar from another guy Red Dog Guitars who makes them, and i also spoke to him, but his prices have topped $600!

    This thing for $199 is basically the same thing...

            Very cool. The hot-rodded model sounds absolutely evil.

              That hot rodded ones is one of the expensive types...

              Over two years ago when I started discussing having one built with the builder himself, they were around $300 and that was cool...

              Now they are over $600...

              I'm gonna call the guy who builds the first one I posted (his number is on his ebay page) and see what we can put together...

                    Well, I just got off the phone with the guy, Fuzzy Whitener and he is really awesome!

                    Talked for about an hour from everything regarding Stratocasters to Van Halen...

                    He's a real musician from Texas who has made his living playimg music. He builds these guitars 100% by hand himself and they sound awesome...

                    Sarge, it's not what they look like, it's the tone...

                    Did you listen to to those viseos I posted ??

                      Turns out, Fuzzy is a Texas blues legend...

                      Click on this silly video...

                      I'm in awe of speking with this man for nearly an hour...

                      Like I said, I was initially interested in buying one of the Red Dog guitars but the prices have skyrocketed...

                      John, who builds Red Dog Guitars by hand and Fuzzy who does the same, are friends...

                      These are no toys...

                        Hell yeah. Thing looks cool. If you are gonna get a kick out of it, go for it. That's what your disposable income is there for. My question is does the cigar box smell good. I have one with some coins in it and every time I open it this awesome smell wafts out of it. During breaks between songs, it would be cool if you could get a cigar to pop out of it. Invent one that dispenses Marlboros and it could be the next EVH signature guitar.

                            E, shared this thread with a friend today. The fellow is a non-musician, yet he was instantly impressed by the brand of cigars the box held. I initially attempted to interest him in the sound of the thing, yet he kept going back to the imagery and construction.

                            What can I tell ya, karma-wise it appears cool.

                            Looks and sounds fairly nifty. Keep us updated as this goes along.
