Didn't Spock play this on the original Star Trek?

LOL! Well, first off, I'd get it in solid black or something a bit more restrained.

But harp guitars have been around a while:


Wanting one made out of carbon fiber takes the risk-factor and maintenance-factor out of owning a large, expensive instrument. And carbon fiber, when done right, is insanely resonant, so I think it'd work well for a harp guitar.

I knew it!

What you want is a Spock-guitar-harp

The Spocktar!

Always wanted a full set of acoustic Uilleann pipes, they're just so expensive and hard to find.

Also, the electronic version is pretty badass.

Happy Birthday Tom!

"Spocktar."

When I get moved somewhere I might just make one. You can order the strings and find the dimensions online....

The "construction" part is fascinating:

My sister made one out of PVC pipe and bees wax. Sounded pretty fucking good. Maybe something to think about/google.

I've seemt em....I don't have a heat gun to get that twist though

Got an Inuk at a good price. Turns out, it was super rational! I had to lower the action, and I don't like the tiny frets, but I LOVE it. I'm thinking of almost entirely quitting acoustic guitar in favor of it (and/or things like it: doubled strings tuned in unison, super wide string spacing at the saddle. Guess there's nothing else like that...yet.)

I kind of want a 40" scale bass

I totally want a suzuki omnichord
