Fred Flintstone comes to mind.

I was recently able to find and purchase a 60's teardrop hard shell case for my Delta IV. These cases are as rare as hens teeth.

Nah... now, the teardrop body guitar showed up in Banana Splits... but there was one cartoon that used a funny polygonal shape similar to yours, though a little longer, and maybe blue. But darned if I didn't search for almost an hour (what else you gonna do in Chemo?) And didn't find it. I thought it was the Jabberjaws band (the Neptunes...) or another Hannah-Barbara band... but no.luck yet.Fred Flintstone comes to mind.
The Impossibles are close, but not what I am thinking of... in fairness, it coulda been a long neck keytar... but I can't find it one way or the other...Nah... now, the teardrop body guitar showed up in Banan Splits... but there was one cartoon that used a funny polygonal shape similar to yours, though a little longer, and maybe blue.

Can't recognize the headstock logo... What's the Biggun's parentage?Between 1974 and 1999, I owned 1 bass guitar: the Ric.
Came a time when we weren’t having to squeeze Every dollar until the Eagle gave up…and so I bought this bass, off eBay, for $200.
Prolly Made In Korea…very well built.
The only guitar I own that has a name: The Biggun.

This light doesn’t allow for the way the (certainly not spruce) face has aged to a very pretty dark honey.
