Location: Hicksville, NY | The looks alone somewhat confused me by just staring at the photographs. If the advertising is exactly what it says -- built to "conform to the player rather than the player conforming to it" -- then I guess it can have my vote. |

Location: Hicksville, NY | Musical or not ... I tend to go for things that "conforms" to the individual, instead of the other way around. Looking at this twisted Burrell guitar, I base my opinion through the perspective of a special educator, which happens to be my vocation for about 10 years now.
I've always believed that all individuals, in some form or another, have special needs and musicians are no exception. I myself will admit that my technique is off, but that should not stop me from expressing my musicianship in any way shape or form, and have done that by modifying my guitars to my needs instead of the other way around. |

Location: New York, NY | Interesting... but I'll be the one who says it. THOSE ARE THE UGLIEST GUITARS I'VE EVER SEEN! Looks like a guitar out of a bad Picasso acid trip. |
