New Ideas In Guitaring Technology (1982) (via Hondo)

Above: many are familiar with “The Chiquita,” the ‘original (banana shaped/coloured) travel guitar’; less well-known is The Nomad 3X, a les-paul-jr-styled, full-scale guitar with a built-in-amp; it promises to operate from AC, DC, or 12 volt power. Okay… Anyhow, for previous HONDO coverage on PS dot com, click here… oh, and you prolly aughta click here, too…
