Considering how sloppy the build is, I don't even think a gibby employee made this (unless it was the janitor).

The janitor theory is entirely plausible. Scrap parts + someone who's observed a lot of guitar building = this!

Is there any truth in the rumour that the Dutch are always sticking their fingers into dykes...? Or was it thumbs...? :vader:

Naw, I have a fretted prototype and an early unfretted series model (though that is an aftermarket defret) plus a range of other assorted Rippers ... Not to mention how we will be moving offices in the not too distant future and Ze Köllekshün won't fit all into the new quarters!  :-\

Thinking about it ... I wouldn't want it to feature me too heavily though, something modest please.

Positioning of the sound hole obviously predetermined where the later mudbucker would go.  :rimshot:
