| Look at the wear on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd frets, it looks like it's been played to death. |

Music-outlet-shop on the fleeb has this lovely piece for under 3000 euros:
Apparently called the Gittler, only 200 Gits would've played this in the '80s, one being Andy Summers. Wonder why only 200 were made? |

I've played a Gittler, although it was the one without the plastic behind the fish-bone neck.
I quite liked it actually. |

C'mon!
Why are guitarists so conservative?
I thought it was all supposed to be about rebellion. |

I think it all changes when you get married, get the mortgage and then have kids, and your mumber 1 priority in life isnt trying to make political changes by going on CND marches and supporting The Anti-Nazi league but you seem to worry a lot more about getting your kids into the school of your choice, and then having to move house to do so.
You finaly realise that all that twoddle the new Labour goverment gave you in 98' about parental choice was a load of old cobblers, and thats when rebellion takes the back seat.. what the hell this has to do with a Gittler?? well like New Labour it looks on the surface to promise so much, but in fact it delivers so little.  |

Not saying this is a bad finish, but surely you'd be better off just swapping guitars?
