Formica Pippin.
This guitar was an experiment. I received some
literature from a company marketing
photo-realistic surfaces on formica. The curly
maple and mahogany were too compelling not to
try. The neck is from a bundle of N.O.S.
Teisco necks. I made the pickup, the pickup ring,
and the tailpiece.
The illusion was achieved and my curiousity
satisified. You can also chop vegeatables on it,
and it wipes down easily.
