<p>It does look a lot like the Bigsby. Cool shape (both of them). I bet it would make a neat guitar if made from wood.</p>
<p>This is what Prince probably played in a former life.</p>

<p>If the top is made of brass, you could go without any braces maybe?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As Hans noted, the design should be pretty cool for a solid body electric with 36 frets!</p>

<p>Well, maybe not that similar now that I look at it a second time ;)</p>
<p>Any idea about the inside structure, the braces? Transverse like the Viennese, I'd imagine but wondering if they used metal as well.</p>

<p>It's obviously solid evidence for time travel. I suspect it's an early prototype for Futureman's (of Bela Fleck and the Flecktones) Drumitar. He cannot be from this place in time so must travel throught time compiling bits and pieces for his intruments....Notice the similar use of widely available....uh, junk!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I love the built in stand...if that's what the bits on the bottom are.</p>
