Do we really need studies for this?

French and Israeli researchers have discovered the shocking truth: Women find men more attractive if they hold a guitar. Gosh, I would never have guessed!

I wonder how many research dollars were wasted here.

Totally valid study that needs to be expanded upon.

What's the difference in attractiveness if the guy holds a bass rather than a guitar?
Are Gibsons more sexy than Fenders?
What about drummers?
What's the most repulsive instrument? Marching band Sousaphone perhaps?

Note that the word is "guitar" and not "bass".

Duh.

Israeli researchers?! We have a strong candidate for this year's Ig Nobel prizes.

I think this guy had some preliminary data.

We should all be watching out for ERB incursion...

The manliest instruments have shotguns, rocket launchers or machine guns built in.....but it does promote neck dive.

There is also a risk of lead poisoning...

Darn, and I learned bass. $:-\$

It is a bass... guitar...

Much more wood...

I have been told that the way a bassist moves his fingers when playing finger-style is a turn-on for women. Chicks dig bass players.
