7 strings, 8 strings...nah, 11 strings!

I saw a pic of this monster in a Swedish guitar mag a few years ago. Don't know if you've seen it.

It's a custom made eleven stringed alto guitar tuned in G. With 29 frets and a Floyd... Just think about the time it'll take to get that sucker in tune, let alone change strings!

I dont see the need of something like that ! 7 or maybe 8 string but 11 .... dont think it could play with me ....

It looks like a big fat paddle more than anything else, really.

Where they got an 11 string Floyd is what boggles my mind.

Jeremy, maybe you should offer a Floyd on your 8 string Leviathans.

I'll second that ... and I bet it's very hard to play either

I just want to know where I can get an 8 string floyd.

I dont whether to look in awe, or just throw-up. Its an ugly bugger innt! And I agree with the floyd thing......how on earth they managed with that is beyond me. And god knows what its like when you change the strings on it!
