Probably inspired by the American Showster Cadillac guitar, this home-built guitar uses Strat-style parts (neck, pickups, electrics) mounted on an almost V-like body which is supposedly reminiscent of the tail-fin of a particular classic American automobile. To add verisimilitude, it is outfitted with a working tail-light.
It is currently listed on eBay UK with a starting price of £10.
