I like that a lot. I probably would have gone a little more deliberate on the glass colors, but still. Very cool.

I don't know, yeah cool but they don't looking comfy. They could be, but not inviting.

Structurally good, carefully planned and executed, ugly as hell. Just not pleasing to look at, different for differences sake.

maybe it's one of those arty pieces that transforms into the image of a nakey woman when viewed from one particular angle.

The bike/glass work is marvelous...

...but I have to admit, a design automatically annoys me when I see gears placed in a configuration where they can't actually crank.

For example, these gears won't turn, and so the "making it work" metaphor is ironically broken:

1~We are freeborn sprockets.
2~We each have our color, shade, and destiny.
3~We will not comply with the human plans.
4~We will not be subjugated, will not mesh.

WE ARE SPROCKETS!! HEAR US ROAR!!



PS, the gears are on their own, fuck them.

There was a lot of thought that went into that piece.

Awesome.

But when they thought about it, they ended up going around in circles.

OK, when you're sitting around with a full tummy, too stuffed to do much, whip out your jackknife and personalize your gitfiddle.
I'd guess it was carved then glued on, but that's only a guess.

Carved then glued back together, maybe, but you couldn't add a whole outer layer of wood to the body without completely fucking up the sound it made.

A little poking around..
Dude who made it is AR Nelson, and he's active on the Acoustic Guitar Forum.
He's got a huge thread that details the construction of the guitar, much like my band saw thread, but way more impressive.

And youtube video to show how it sounds.
