Incredible 35-string electric harp guitar by Slovenian luthier Marko Lipovšek
guitarz.blogspot.com:
I don't think I'd care to be the one to hang this behemoth on a strap around my shoulders, but have to admit that it's an incredible piece of sculpture. Made by Slovenian luthier Marko Lipovšek, this one-of-a-kind 35-string harp guitar with three sets of strings has been sculpted from Slovenian White Maple, ebony, and Slovenian black walnut.

Looks like something from an Star Trek episode or something :-)
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see it played...
ReplyDeleteWhat's incredible is the price. Don't get me wrong It is an amazing looking creation and I like it a lot but nearly 10,000 quid! how can that be justified especially as all of the hardware looks off the shelf stuff to me. plus nearly a thousand pounds to ship it! I presume that's so the seller can bring it himself and have a holiday at the same time! Jesus for that I would want it to play itself! Stuff like this makes me angry can you tell.
ReplyDeleteNote that the seller on Etsy is NOT the guy who made the guitar.
DeleteYes I was aware of that.
DeleteIt is an amazing piece of sculpture, and it actually reminds me more of a baroque lute than a guitar. I wonder if it sounds any good...
