Bloodrock, indeed. Or as Kiki Dee said, "I've Got the Music in Me."

But in a more serious vein, how on earth did you come across that, Gargoyle?

What I want to know is how the h**l did they get funding to do it?

Prowling the dark, underbelly, academic-ally-ways, of the net... for over a decade.... has yeilded some gems.

Isn't this fabulous? We had it on our science page a few weeks back. Simply amazing. I wonder if all us musical types actually have those little guys coursing through our veins???

Well, I'm not that impressed: no volume/tone controls, no vibrato arm; and left-handed, too, so no use to me! Mind you, the neck seems to be transparent, going by the shadow - I like that! What about a bodhran to match? You could play it all you liked, no-one would hear it!

Finally, a guitar to match the size of my musical talent.

Gargoyle-

I've got a spare set of strings, if you're interested.

Neil- finally someone humble enough to admit his shortcomings. ROTFRWL

Feder Strat indeed! Boy those University guys should spend more time at the music store and less in the lab. It looks a lot more like a "twin point" Les Paul. Now if I can only find Harmony's Giant (20 feet high, I think) Sovereign guitar. The company's ad says "It's playable too"!! Good work Mr. G!

Now all we need is an amoeba that can play it (preferably while holding a third pseudopod to it's pseudoear).

Well, Jon W..

I know a few people with minds of amoebas. Let me know, and I'll give you names, ranks and serial numbers.
