Scroll about half-way down the page. Be sure to look at the detail on the bottom of the guitar.

No legs, no pedals, can't play it - what's the point? Does anyone make a bar that small? What do you do for an amp?

These little trinkets have been around for years, and they routinely sell at flea-markets and collectible shops for $10-$15 each. I certainly hope no forumites are forking over $25-$30 for one! Image

I had one as a hat pin/tie tack for years- I was always stunned at the underside detail...

Is that a bolt-on or a cut-tail? Does it really have the push/pull tone? Anyone know what the pickup is wound to? Copedent? Emmons/Day?
