Guitar Bong
Die Gitarrenbong hier soll angeblich spielbar sein, halte ich allerdings für ein Gerücht. Und das Mundstück ist viel zu nah am Chillum, aber hey: Shred’n'Stone, was solls! (via Bongmutterpfiffbjörk)
Typing E-Mails using a Guitar
E-Mails per Gitarre schreddern, die Noten werden in Keyboard-Signale umgesetzt. Mir fehlt da ja ein bisschen die Leoparden-Spandex zur Flying-V, aber der Schnurri gleicht das ja auch wieder aus.
WK recently allowed me some time to tackle a problem that plagues workers everywhere whether they are working in advertising or some other job that involves a lot of email typing. I’m talking about the problem of not being able to devote enough time practicing shredding the guitar.
The solution of hooking a guitar up so that you could use it like a computer keyboard had been in my head for a few years and it was a real joy to get to follow through on it.

3D-printed Guitars
Olaf Diegel druckt Gitarren aus:
Diegel is professor of mechtronics at Massey University in Auckland, New Zealand and has a passion for 3D printing. His designs – Scarab and Spider electric guitars blur the line between art and mere musical instruments. They are 3D printed in alumide and polyamide on an EOS Formiga P100 selective laser sintering machine. Both guitars can be fitted out with any selection of neck and hardware by modifying the geometry to suit. If someone wants a certain brand of pickup the guitars can easily accommodate any changes.

Millennium Falcon Guitar
Travis S. hat eine Millennium Falcon-Gitarre gebaut. Ob Travis S. bei der Corellian Engineering Corporation arbeitet, weiß ich nicht: „She may not look like much, but she’s got it where it counts, kid. I’ve made a lot of special modifications myself. – Han Solo and also probably Travis S.“

Schöne Installation von Céleste Boursier-Mougenot: Finken auf einer E-Gitarre, die Gang of Four-Cover nachspielen und deren Sound doch schon ziemlich nahe kommen.

Spielzeuggitarre aus Holz
Ich liebe diese Gitarre für Kids aus Holz „powered by a kid’s imagination and voice“. Auch sehr luftgitarrenkompatibel, würde ich sagen.
Powered by a kid’s imagination and voice, the Guitar by Make Believe Company is a miniature version of the real thing. Forget fancy electrics + squeaky sounds, the wood Guitar is a naturally intuitive guitar that any kid will instantly know how to play.
Their sweet voice becomes the sound while they learn the feel, movement and weight of a real guitar. Rockstar? Totally.
The Guitar is made from a solid piece of ethically harvested ash wood with a non-toxic hand rubbed satin finish. Features real metal guitar buttons that holds the strap.
