I'm neither for or against acrylic guitars. I think that in the right form, they can look awesome. In fact I'm very open to non-wood guitars of all kinds. If anyone has ever played a Rainsong carbon fibre acoustic they'll likely agree with me.
There is a lot to like about The Phantom. It looks to be constructed well, has wilkinson pickups, and sports a bigsby style tremolo. Also, it's a Canadian made guitar. I probably could never get past the large missing portion of the upper body. It would probably make a convenient handle, but I'd be more worried that my girthy mid-section would occupy the missing space.
Not the most attractive onstage look.

this is certainly a cool looking guitar, I'm skeptical about how it would sound though. Have you had the chance to play this one?

I find Acrylic Guitars attractive. They have the aura that can attract guitarist. Unlike the wood type Acrylics are waterproofs.
ReplyDeleteAlso, besides strumming, the guitar still has many different styles of being played. For example, in flamenco, the musicians often use their hands and fingers and tap the body of their guitar to create sounds to blend in with the flamenco music. best spanish guitar
