Let's not start eyeing our instruments while under the influence, OK? The evidence.

I don't get why he carved the back of it so much though,its not like any one's gonna see it playing and the loss of mass? 
Still cool though.

However, the person who carved this up has definitely reduced his potential sales market to a very small group. I still wonder what mind-altering experience might have provided the inspiration!

It's kinda cool. If I had 99 bucks I was going to throw in the street, I might buy it.

Then the practical side of me takes over and says - where does the strap button go? I can't make the poor lizard eat it.

I still wonder what mind-altering experience might have provided the inspiration! | There is no indication to me that the artist was necessarily under the influence of anything - though the argument could be made that no sober person would do that, I have artsy friends... and many of them are out of their minds, drug users or not. In fact I could show you some really great murals by the same person, some done sober, under the influence of marijuana, MDMA, etc. The differences are much more subtle than you might think. Though I will say that hallucinogens (LSD, psilocin, mescaline etc.) will give one very interesting/patterned ideas, but this carving doesn't show it in any obvious way. Absolutely anything is possible, but I would lean towards this simply being what a very eclectic person thought was a good idea. |
