Hallmark Batman bat-wing guitar designed and signed by George Barris

guitarz.blogspot.com:
We've seen Batman-themed guitars before, but could this one be the coolest? From the eBay listing:
This guitar is designed and signed by George BARRIS only #100 made this is #56. It is designed like the Bat Mobile and is called the "Wing-Bat". George BARRIS was the original maker of the Bat Mobile. I won this very unique item at an auction. This is a very high quality guitar made by Hallmark Guitars. There is a red led light that works with a switch, very cool accessory. The black case is included with purchase. See picture #12, there is a small imperfection that happened during manufacturing.
Currently listed on eBay with a starting bid of $1,699.

  1. Barris may have been the original maker of the "Batmobile" but he wasn't the original designer of the Lincoln Futura http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_Futura

    1. Understood... Barris just added flourishes.

  3. Got this model, great guitar, the only problem is one pickup only which is just not universal for music my band plays, so had to install neck one and modify "light" switch into pickup selector
