You know how sometimes you think, “I could totally build that weird DIY guitar I saw online!”
And then… 35 failed attempts later, you’re trapped in a purgatory of plywood, elbow grease, and self-doubt?
Well. That’s me. For weeks, I’ve been trying (and failing) to replicate this majestic tribute to abstract lutherie… a.k.a. the Plankcaster.
It’s got strings, a bridge, and something that might have been a body in a past life. Maybe it’s an IKEA concept model gone wrong, maybe?
Anyway, after all those failed attempts to replicate this instrument of avant-garde despair, I’ve decided to go back to doing what I do best: poking fun at guitarchitecture gone wrong.
Also… heads-up :
Guitar Fail is cooking up some new flavors this fall. More visuals, more chaos, and still no clue how to play jazz chords.
Stay tuned. Or don’t. We’re used to bad tuning anyway.
