This new buidling has an older brother, the spider scorpion and perhaps -if you like- you can hear it on the thread about this guitar.

I honestly would like to present it on your guitarapolooza but from good old germany it's a quite longer way than to "Tipperary". So I hope I could explain it clear enough with my german english.
By the way what does it mean "guitarapolooza" ?
all the best

Thank you, that is all very interesting and I will investigate more. Guitarapolooza is really a made up word meaning a big party or festival...Octoberfest for guitars haha!!! You can still come, I have folks coming from Scotland and England!!! Ticket prices are cheap right now!!!
