Cool guitar i ran across, you may have already seen it.

This thing is crazy! It's an 8 string, with some fanned frets. The neck is only $1,600 manufacured by Novax.

Quick question: what's the point of fanned frets?

I believe it lets you have multiple scale lengths on the same guitar, i guess so you can make the tension of the strings more even?

it has 2 cable jacks, 1 for the guitar pickup(s), and 1 for the bass pickup(s), so you can plug it into 2 amps. It was designed for this very self obsessed jazz guy who makes faces like hes taking a massive shit when he's playing his quite simple riffs. dont remmeber his name... but its not important, hes nothing special, just has a fucking expensive guitar.

I was very bemused as a youngster watching the Golden Girls when Blanche said she was going to "spank her fanny" I had visions of a geriatric vertical bacon sandwich red and bruised from being disciplined!!!
