Bob-Dubery The "bird" and the "fish" are the two aliyumyum structures. Some interesting features... The two bars running along the bass side are tone bars, made of wood, and are interchangeable to modify tone Pickups are movable and interchangeable - Teuffel provide a range of single coils and a range of humbuckers The controls are mounted in a unit that is in turn mounted on a locking pivot. So you can adjust the position of the controls See http://www.teuffel.com/english/guitars/birdfish/birdfish_main.htm Keep the noise down in the back of the class! Billy Gibbons has one of these.

This includes a 2nd set of tone bars, 5 pickups that you can mix and match, and a set of tools. See the price list at http://www.teuffel.com/english/sales/pricing_EUROPE/pricing_birdfish.htm

BMU I would love to own one, the only reason I don't is the price. The interesting thing is they've been around for years and years. If I remember correctly, I first ogled them in a Guitar World Buyers Guide sometime in the 90s, before such things as printed buyers guides were completely outmoded by a quick Google search. (I hope my memory is serving me correctly here... ??? )
Reinhard I wonder how confortable it would be to play, with the shape, layout etc. I agree, it sure looks cool, but for 9000 euros I'd rather go for 50's wood and know I won't make a colossal loss if I ever sell the thing.
