Guitarist Are somewhat weird peoples, They like more than they need. They eat more than they can chew. 
And the greatest thing is, They Want more guitars then they can play... But to get more weird ...even

I mean can you imagine playing this thing? How are you going to hang it around your neck?
CARZY? MAD? AMAZING? WEIRD? RIPLEY?
Believe it or not ? Guitarist is crazy to this level... Like Pantera said, "A WHOLE NEW LEVEL"

Ok, reality is guitarist want more than 1. so we have 2 necks guitar, 3 neck and the it goes...
Some may have 12strings for 1 neck and a 6 on  the other, some may have a mandolin on the upper part and a bass on the lower.
Imagination may go wild with this stuffs, you may just need a RM10k Credit Card to customize. LOL....

Weird Awesome Amazing Guitars Pt. 2

Actually i wanted to post about bottleneck slides and the famous players using slides but i can't help it. I have to POST the weird awesome amazing guitars findings that i got.
This time i'm looking at the guitars people made with scraps. People from africa and people during the 1920's, not much money then and only Rich people can enjoy such instruments. The folks can only think of making their own, such as the cigar box guitars or guitars made out from brooms and wires.
This guy is popular in youtube posting guitars and ukuleles made up for sell.
 He is now holding is a ukulele made from shoebox.

Oil Can Guitars.....

Guitar made with mint candy tin
Guitar made by a bicycle

Cookie tin guitar

Oh ya... Music Star Academy's signboard is up. come check us out !!!!

Weird Awesome Amazing Guitars Pt. 1

We know we saw many, we thought we saw it all but is there a limit? Is There "ALL" in music? The more you know the more you don't know. Right? Have you ever experienced?
You learn guitar, hoping to play and strum some songs, later learn to solo, then fingerstyle acoustic then double hand picking, slide, jazz chords, improvisation African music ...bla bla bla bla.....
TODAY.. MSA  is going to share with you our investigation on weird guitars. The weirdest guitar i know when i started exposing to it is the 12 string guitar and some guitars with different color that is not available here in Malaysia. Then the double neck then headless. Now, those are just common. I mean factory mass produce them. = Common.
As you guys know I'm a guitar freak from Head to Toe, these are not enough. I started a journey discovering weird awesome amazing guitars, So just sit back and enjoy the beautiful creation of your brothers & sisters in Music......

 1) Muffler Guitar

These guitars are made from a car's muffler. The neck is inserted so as the bigsby & pups.
The Band Homemade Jamz from the USA uses these babys. You have a guitar and a bass. Crafted by their father.
The chrome finished on these guitars is so amazing!!!!
 2 brothers playing and singing the blues while the sister plays the drums and harmonica from their father.














2) The Sword!!!

By ESP custom shop, i think a guy from Japan made it.
This guitar me remind me of playing Monster Hunter Freedom United on the PSP.



While jamming can slay dragon..LOL
Cool eh?..











3) Harp Guitars
Ok, i saw Andy Mckee playing one of these on his youtube video. check out more below.

We need a complicated guy to play this complicated guitar..?

So Far so good.?
