what is this?

She's Neko Case. Don't know much about her; just googled from the info on the Carr Amplifier site. Here's a pic with her and a closer view of the "guitar".

It's Gibson, alright, but the strings are guitar guage. Must play it like a uke. Hmm.

That there is a pretty girl.

And since the tuning keys are so far apart (the ones on the same side) it looks to me that it used to be a 6 string guitar. But I could be wrong.

:D

yup, tenor guitar.
i love mine:

you can tune it alot of different ways.
4ths is cool, open tunings are great for slide stuff.

She's pretty in pics, that's for sure...
Uh...I didn't see anything indicating any "mods", like hole plugs, etc. I wonder if it's an actual Tenor built that way. Probably. Looks sort of cool. Put some thicker strings on it and it would really be something! ;)

It could go either way with a pic I guess. :smug:

Yeah,

after seeing D.A.R.K.'s tenor guitar I guess they're just made that way.

Hey, cool.

:D
