MotorAve Fastback - gorgeous contemporary American guitar design


guitarz.blogspot.com:
We've previously looked at another guitar from MotorAve, namely their BelAire model (as used by Queens Of The Stone Age's Josh Homme). The above pictured guitar, however, looking like nothing else on Earth is a MotorAve Fastback. The guitar was designed and built from solid mahogany by Mark Fuqua in Los Angeles and is one of the earliest that he made with a serial number of 0004.

Currently listed on eBay with a Buy It Now price of £2,000.

- Proof That It Really Exists! The Labaye 2x4 Longscale Bass...
guitarz.blogspot.com: Now here's a bass that was only ever rumoured to exist; it's a longscale version of the now legendary LaBaye 2x4 bass. I'm so excited to have found proof that it actually does exist. Legend has it that one "one or two"...

- Multivox/premier Scroll Bass From Late 1950s/early 1960s
guitarz.blogspot.com: This Multivox/Premier scroll bass currently listed on eBay is quite a looker, but despite its alleged rarity I think that the Buy It Now price of $3,695 can only be called optimistic. We've looked at Multivox/Premier guitars...

- An Epiphone Neck Attached To... What On Earth Is That Supposed To Be?
guitarz.blogspot.com: Do you think someone actually consciously DESIGNED this guitar body? My guess is that it's the result of randomly cutting out shapes from a piece of wood with a jigsaw. It does have a vague heraldic look to it, but I'm...
