Seems like there'd be tuning problems but I guess you could also use it as a ghetto whammy bar XD

This idea is stolen from Pete Townsend, he folded his guitars every night on stage many years ago already

Posted by: audiopaal Apr 10 2008, 10:11 PM

Oh god, Imagine the whammybends...




Hahahaha, good one

...way too big...I need one that I can put in my pocket...

Posted by: DeepRoots May 13 2008, 12:06 PM

This would rock way too hard...

I can imagine going on holdiay, sitting on the balcony whipping out a folded guitar with my Pandora and living the life i was intended to live

Then going home two weeks later....

..ah well.

Cool

But surely you'd only be able to fold that guitar if it wasn't strung? If it had strings attached surely they would break or something?

Posted by: kaznie_NL May 13 2008, 02:19 PM

Lolz xD.

The bridge contains a little engin which unwinds the strings so you can fold the guitar.

Dont ya just hate that feeling when theres like a couple of days to go *sigh*

Anyways, I dare someone to try a home build of this guitar! tenon saw anyone??

Seems nice to carry.

But now I am addicted to neck-thru guitar That would be really hard to make foldable

Posted by: Bogdan Radovic May 13 2008, 05:01 PM

heheeh funny gadget
Also I guess you need extra long strings for guitar to be able to fold like that

Posted by: Siggum May 13 2008, 05:20 PM
