It must be worse in the flesh surely?

Sorry, but all i can think about as i read these comments are Pink Floyd songs from The Wall.

I wouldn't mind one, for the raging slab connection, but it'd have to be a fraction of that price before I could afford it. I seem to remember an Africa shaped guitar being around at one time.. Live Aid??

I've had two women tell me they'd like to learn the guitar but both refusing to cut their fingernails.

Yes, Elyse Steinman from Raging Slab played one, and I've just found out she died last March!  RIP.

@usedtobe ;; if you like Dynamite Monster Boogie Concert, check out their first album, it's great.
