Believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see. I think Shaft should send it to me for unbiased, third party verification. Once I'm satisfied that it is #43, I'll send it to Cliff, and so on down the list.

Could someone have repainted it? It almost looks like someone did - then pulled the epaulettes off. But again, it is a pretty grainy photo to draw any conclusions from.

This actually was a photo on ebay some time ago. Somebody was trying to sell it off as an Adamas guitar. Lord knows what the hell it really is.

But y'all got me thinking of something ... an adamas topped ukulele. That might be pretty interesting.

There are two things that children shouldn't be allowed to play with:

One is firearms.

The other is PhotoShop. :rolleyes:

My parents used to give me rusty razor blades and a bus schedule.

I'm holding out for the Slothead Breadwinner.

Bill,

How about a Tricone uke! Slothead of course.

Talk about a trash can full of hub caps rolling down a cobblestone street! (credits to Bailey)

Well its a good thing "shaft" sent a clear picture so to clear things up and not discredit himself..could he have made it more grainy and fuzzy.Talk about smoke and mirrors.What a crock!!
I have personally seen and played more slotheads than anyone here with the exeption of Bill.Nothing looks right about this guitar.The red reverse burst is wrong ,the epauletes look wrong,the neck looks wrong.

Wasn't #43 Richard Petty's number, it should be red and blue with an STP logo.
