It might be that most carbon fiber guitars don't sound like grandpa's old Martin. But then there's people who go for metallic sound on purpose. Resonators, anyone?

I have no idea how this one sounds.

I tried a google search for aluminum guitars and came across some builders who do aluminum electrics - including aluminum necks. Some had youtube clips with sounds from jazz to shred. Didn't sound exactly like most telecasters - but then my wooden partscaster with sort of tele hardware doesn't sound exactly like most telecasters either.
