Title: Bare bones guitar

Normally I don't link to a thread at another forum, but there are lots of pics and text I'd have to copy, and the puns that follow are worth reading.

Bit of a lame joke isn't it.

Ah, Rob is wearing his "I'm the adult here"-hat again.  :-X

I heard the skeluthier now intends to auction it, he's waiting for one morbid. (I'm sorry, Rob, just couldn't resist ...)

There is a market for this out there, you know ...

If I'm thinking of my dead uncle, I hope Monstrance Clock isn't the song that would come to mind!

And I must admit to being more disturbed than I would have thought by that article. I guess I'm old fashioned...

I don't believe that skeleton is real or that it is from his dead uncle. OTOH, Edith has repeatedly stated that if she goes first, she wants to end up as a carbon bass neck on one of my basses.

Seems to be a real skeleton.

If Uncle Fester was in fact a metal head, then I guess it's alright and he appreciates it. Keeper of the Faith.
