Beautiful minimalist steel and glass guitars from Hungary

guitarz.blogspot.com:
Never mind if you can't speak Hungarian, this video is still well worth checking out. I like that these steel and glass guitars push the boundaries of guitar design to its limits. The irony is, of course, that most of these sophisticated pieces of engineering are actually descendants of that most primitive type of guitar, namely those made from cigar boxes and other recycled parts and played with a slide.

Thanks to Guitarz reader Arpad for bringing these highly individual instruments to my attention.
