Daft 'project' guitar

axisus

Yup, this is totally daft. Someone selling a guitar neck, a gearbox cover and a race wishbone and calling it a guitar project!

I would actually love to take on that project, but not at that price, if it was buy it now at £50.00, I would take it in a heartbeat.

That's sad ! You deserve a 'suspension' for 'springing' that joke as it gave me a 'ball-joint' ache  LOL

Stop it. That's just crazy torque.

Rocker

Exactly where would you put the Bigsby @JohnnyPlectrum?

Alnico

If that's a gearbox cover, you could call it 'Wishbone Crash' ?

I've actually messaged the seller with an offer, not the £99.00 that he is asking for, but one that I think is reasonable and fair.

I'm so interested to see the final price on the auction - the suspension is killing me.

Nobody has put a bid in though I expected that with the amount of work and parts needed to turn the parts into a playable guitar, and I haven't heard back from the seller with regards to my offer though the auction only ended a few minutes ago to be fair to the seller not to mention the time of night that it is too.

looks like the kind of guitar that you could play classic Van Halen songs on..............Ain't Torsion 'bout love ?

Maybe if you know a female vocalist you could use it to play something by Kate Bush ?

If you're into Rockabilly you could play the 'Stray Cat Strut' ?

That's all i got.

Probably didn't want to sell it in Any case , all torque .

Sassafras

I wouldn't hold out much hope for its tuning stability.

I don't want to be all Emperor's New Clothes (or indeed Groove) about it, but how the fuck is that a "guitar build project"?

They're just two random bits of some car or other.  The only thing which remotely connects them with any notion of building a guitar is that - oh look - they've been photographed with a guitar neck.

It's not even clear from the listing whether the neck and/or guitar body are actually included in the auction.

Suspect this is more a method of selling some F1 memorablia that doesn't strictly belong to the seller, more than a genuine guitar project...

My mum had that Lino flooring in 1985. That's my contribution to this bizzare thread..

Sarge

We still sell that lino, hideous to look at, nightmare to fit.
