    "Hard Rock" Guitar

    I bet you could play some heavy music with this, but a good strap and steel toed boots might be a good idea.

    LOL!

    Reminds me of my "Classic Rock II" Les Paul. Except it's really wood despite the finish.

    That is an interesting looking finish. Have you played "Stone in Love" by Journey on it yet? I have watched several other guitar builds by the guy who did the concrete guitar. He is a pretty talented guy.

    It sounds absolutely killer on "Turn To Stone" by Joseph Walsh (from his Barnstorm album).

    I'm more of an old-fashioned buy. "Heart of Stone," by The Rolling Stones.

    Heart of Stone is a rather obscure song. Recorded at RCA Studios - Hollywood, CA in Oct 1964. I actually have that song from the 4 LP box set "Singles Collection - The London Years" that came out in 1989. Sorry about my phone's camera flash right in the middle of the photo.



    The guy who built the concrete guitar also built one out in the woods using just hand tools. Pretty impressive!.

    Perhaps he'll travel to Antarctica and dazzle us with an amp built solely from floe ice.

    He has built some crazy guitars. Colored pencils, sheets of paper. And sold some of them for pretty hefty sums. The thin Limba Blade sold for $3,200.
