I am amused, but I am easily amused these days.

We flew into Ft Lauderdale last week and I had a good view of it as we made our final approach to land. I thought it was pretty cool. Needs a neck and headstock IMO.

Nice to look at but does being a six string make it not a good base for your stay?

Any new hotel, that has that much architectural attention to the build will be a good base for a stay. Additionally, regardless of the shape, I'm glad to see someone putting some attention into the design of a new building that defies the contemporary move to rectangular boxes.

I can not offer an informed opinion until I see the bridge pins.

I think that's supposed to be a Les Paul, although blue wouldn't be my first choice of color.

Default Guitar-shaped hotel

I imagine someone has posted about this ultra cool Hard Rock hotel in Florida.
I think it's got Taylor's V bracing.
