Got the old body back from the factory from my 1614, (this is why I was looking for a rosette) and was thinking of making a lamp or something out of it. (no taco chip serving bowl ideas) Anybody have some bright ideas?

If I go that way, I have to find an old neck to cobble into it and fill in the missing pieces. Maybe a taco chip bowl is on the horizon....

looking at the pic from the zillafest where you guys are holding the guitars upside down over your faces is interesting in an alien sort of way. make an alien out of this one and hang it on the wall or on the front door next halloween.

Jim,

Why not look for a neck on ebay and make a beater out of it?

Maybe not. Go for the Nacho bowl idea. You could use part of the top as a divider for some salsa.

I like the idea of a bowl. You could bring it to "the g8rbowl" in Feb.

Or did somebody already come up with a name for the g8r jam?

Cut out the neck slot so it fits over your head and wear it for ceremonial Occasions.

Hey Jim - you might be on to something there. If it's one of the bodies with the access hole in the back, you could hook up a drain and make a sink out of it... a bar sink... yeah that's the ticket.

Boy, so many great ideas. :rolleyes:
Maybe I should box it up and send it to Fender to show them how a REAL guitar is made...

you could make a drum out of it, or a shield, or throw your change in it... saw it in half and use it at arms of a chair, use it to make reverb on your voice by yelling into it for recording purposes,make a footrest out of it.
