Looks like something designed by the late Bernardo Rico.

I thought it looked like an instrument that could really cut thru the sound.  :-*

Scott, I love that you're worried about how you look in that shot because most non-musician guys wouldn't even think twice about that. We old rockers from a certain era can't help ourselves even all these years later. And yes, I include myself in that because I think the same way! Unfortunately, I've found in my own experience that we all can't be as genetically blessed as the long legged Fraulein.  :mrgreen:

 At a little over 5'11 I am tipping the scales at 190 down from last March at 202  :o my goal is 180. I was 165 forever, after our daughter was born it seemed like the weight came with fatherhood. Being almost 53 doesn't help either, I eat and drink the same things, well I  eat better now than I did when I was younger. I cycle 2-4 times a week, I just can't seem to shed it like I used to. :sad:

Looking forward to this video being public so you can inundate facebook with it!

I was actually really impressed with how natural and clear it looked. How did you get it to sound so good when you guys don't even have cables or amps?  ;)

I vaguely remember Scott "acquiring" that fun item some time back - why'd she move on...?
Have a great day when it rolls past and turn a blind eye to the calories when you narrowly avoid burning your eyebrows on all those candles... ;)

Video...? Works well and a great sound... Which 'Bird is that in the video...?
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

  The Bird is the "Pheonix" or the little piece of Tbird I bought off ebay, you might remember I rebuilt the body then sent it off to Michael Dolan to build the neck. It came out super it plays and sounds great. I did the finish  Reranch rattle can Pelham blue. Not he best job but it will do for now. I axed the Axe because I wasn't really using it and as a impulse buy it really doesn't fit my collecting criteria USA or vintage. Also After I got the Black '76 Thunderbird I use that for the KISS tunes in the set.

That's a good name for it, all right. I think of it as the Splinter, because that's about all it was when you got it.  :)

We went back and forth over the amp cable thing, it came down to logistics we only had a afternoon to shoot and one person to help with guitars etc. As it was were were chased off a few locations, dragging amps around would have really slowed us down.

 Amen on the weight thing!

Since turning 50 (am 53 now) I can really tell my metabolism has slowed down, I probably should be exercising a bit but am on my feet 8 hrs a day at work just don't always feel like it  :-\
If the fat would just go to my butt and hips instead of my tummy I'd be a lot happier......
