Let's spread some musical misinformation

I am working on a patent for playing guitar while doing yard work, it will be called the Rickenwacker 400 bass and weed eater. This may also lead to other cheap versions such as the Lender PU, made of Chinese stinkwood with an all plastic neck and motor for neighbors that borrow gear they do not intend returning.

Don't forget to include a permanently embedded warning that removal of the pickup cover could cause injury or death!

Nobody plays maple fret boards anymore, as they age they start to leak syrup and get all sweet and sticky. Rosewood is soft and much easier on the fingers, and it maintains a nice scent as well.
Early Rosewood necks used to be painful to play because of thorns. They were finally able to grow Rosewood that was thornless, making Rosewood more user friendly.
