My friend Neil played this guitar he built at my wedding:

i do quite like the headless box ones, like stripping the guitar of all its phallic qualities. though oddly with even the slightest addition to that minimal extreme they become more dickish than ever.

Well, a small headless guitar is probably the least strange thing about them.

okay i've been watching some youtubes of these instruments and dude is sort of a hero

Neil's amazing. He played the Divynax and Anaplumb as my entrance and exit music. The Anaplumb got some second glances from a couple of my aunts because of the "marital aids" attached to it.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 1 August 2012 20:00 (thirteen years ago)

lol!

i've had so many seeds of ideas for instruments like his that i've abandoned due to no way to execute them. awesome to see all this.

(I remember a better one from back in the day where the shaft was the neck, but I have a limit to the amount of Google Image searches I can tolerate to find it).

gentlemen, I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to leave if you insist on posting picture of vulgar and non-scientific guitars ITT.

WYMAN!!!?!? didn't see that one coming.

Elrond Hubbard (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 1 August 2012 23:24 (thirteen years ago)

I knew there was footage of Devo with these but I couldn't find it.
Wyman seems to be winning itt.

Also, if your guitar doesn't have a headstock, why even bother with strings?

Always thought these looked like Darth Vader's guitar.

the bar parallel with the neck was designed to increase stiffness and improve note tracking #guitarnerd

BTW, it's worth reading the specs of Adrian Belew's Parker guitar. Weighs something like 4.5 lbs, tremelo arm can suspend, like, a car and guitar stays in tune.

Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 2 August 2012 15:02 (thirteen years ago)

yeah those parkers seem p cool tbh

arby's, Thursday, 2 August 2012 17:11 (thirteen years ago)

anybody played one?
