The Cloud Guitar (a la Prince)

[Twanking45]

Guys, I know it may seem a tad outlandish and that many builders' first reaction may be that it is an acquired taste, but I think more people will go for this than you think. I can't even find any Chinese importer that makes a sub-par copy of one of those Cloud Guitars. I would love to have one, made with beautiful tone-woods, trick it out with quality p'ups and hardware. There's got to be a way. Would love to make it myself but I am not a wood craftsman.  :dontknow:

Just kick the idea around a bit! See if there's any traction.

I've always liked the shape , it would be an interesting challenge to execute

GreyWolf,

Me too. I always thought it looked a little cheesy when made with all one glossy, candy color. It could be quite elegant if constructed with some quality wood and care (see below). Do you think that Warmoth will ever make such a guitar?

I  would suspect there are license agreements involved .  I would be fun to carve your own out of thier blank though
