But would you actually strap-on an instrument that says on the headstock GIRL BRAND GUITAR CO. :confused: :confused: :confused:

Absolutely. Why not?

I have 2 of them, and they are GREAT guitars.

[KRosser]

I played a bunch when Westwood Music carried them; I thought some played great & some sounded great but the whole aesthetic wasn't my style at all.

Yes, they certainly aren't everyone's cup of tea. That's why I like em!

[Serious_Poo]

Killer stuff. Just killer. Poo want.

[Crazyquilt]

I'd strap on a Girl without batting an eye. Hell, I'd enjoy it. Some of the coolest guitars I've ever seen.

[mprvise]

[Elbutcho]

Absolutely. Why not?

What kind of $$$ are these going for???

[jato]

Guys,

I think they're currently unobtainium.
I've tried, and have gotten nowhere.
Apparently the artist/luthier has a list of potential customers, and the Tuscon area dealer tells me it's a LONG LIST>>>>>>!
:(

I'd love to have one...

Unobtanium is probably right for new ones. I bought both of mine used on TGP for less than 2 large.

Jamie

in a way, being 50 (51 in june) and being called juvenile i can take as being a compliment. it's that eternal teenager/peter pan thing that keeps me young at heart and able to enjoy life and have a chuckle every now and then.

when TGP goes online again, i can see a thread starting up about these 'girl brand' guitars and it will have the title of "girl brand guitars may be cool...". peeps will get hot under the collar because they cannot see anyone but posers and charlatans would want to play such an instrument. personally, i like the post modernist deconstruction ethos of them and would absolutely LOVE to have one!

The Vintage Guitar review I linked to quotes $3000-4000, but that was a while ago.

I believe they used to be less than $2k new, but I started looking at them back around 98 or so.
