Location: Las Cruces, NM | I spent 20 years working in the nucleur industry at General Atomics at Torrey Pines CA, with everything from fully enriched bomb grade uranium to rare isotopes that cost $6000 a gram they were so unusual. I never saw anything that looked like that pretty normal looking 3 neck guitar.
I am rather attracted to that 3 neck critter as it looks like it would give my third regular arm and my fourth arm that just started growing last month something to do while I'm playing. Does anybody have any good chords for the seven fingered hand, by the way?
Bailey :eek: :eek:
I used to drive through Front Royal, VA on my way from Ft Eustis to Ohio in the early 50's in my '49 ford with country and early rock playing on the AM at great volume to keep me awake on the 11 hour drive. |

He he he!
Try an H chord (If you can use all 7 fingers add 11th)
I don't think Front Royal has changed much since the 50's...Everyone is still here(...and they all listen to loud music to stay awake) |

I told you Eubie and I played back in the Newclear era. Eubie, we all said, had music coming out of his ass, when really it was a resophonic banjo that he played with the two arms that came out of his ass. Boy, things were different then. Eubie turned his resophonic banjo into one of the most efficient riding mowers in Conneaut and went on to found the landscaping giant, "We Banjo Your Homestead", helped greatly by sales to the Inutiak rebel eskimos of Newklear technology that probably is a much bigger threat than Iran. The Eskimos are planning to sweep down from the North and capture every source of energy in the lower 40.
But I digress, Eubie had the first FOUR neck banjo, 5 string, 6 string guitar tuning, 4 string tenor, AND, would you believe, 12 string banjo, a definite first, and last. (Thank God)
