this was my teisco factory oddity , un-drilled headstock guitar .. i drilled 2 holes in the top of the headstock to make it a 2 stringer , i used a stencil and silver and black nail polish for the letters and the ouija planchette is a coat hanger , a watch glass face and jewellery . the whammy is a coffee grinder handle . since the vid i added "yes" and no" on the body . the headstock emblem is an old pendent .
hope ya like her .
i need to change the bridge , she slips .;-/

What a guitar, sounds awesome, i'd be tempted to put another string or two on it seeing as its got the neck to take them, but great just as it is,nice looking beastie.
