captainkidd Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Hi! I found this forum half an hour ago and man, i've been looking for something like this for a long time! I want to show you my latest finished instrument, beware, it's the SIAMEESE TWIN GUITAR! btw. it works too. the main neck has got five strings, the fretless one has got three bass strings, and the top head has six thin strings tuned in a scale. i modiefied the bridges to make the guitar sound like a sitar. playing it is a wierd experience... especially if two people play it simultaneously, you'll figure it out the guitar ended up being so long i had to extend the strings by attaching another string at the end of all strings so they would reach the tuners.

wyldbil Posted July 2, 2004 Report Share Posted July 2, 2004 WHOA! That thing is intimidating to a hack guitarist like myself. Man, I wish Michael Hedges was alive to see it. He, more than anyone I can think of, would have gotten the most out of that beast. He played like he had six hands anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
