I can barely play the 6 strings on my own guitars.

2. I've seen a photo of that before.

I wonder if those two wider unfretted necks are meant to be tuned in sympaty rather than played. :shrug:

The bass strings running across the lower bout are just ludicrous, though.

3. I saw Methaney play it on

Ramsey Lewis's Jazz show. It has a wonderful sound and yes, most of the strings are sympathetic strings designed primaruly to vibrate and not be plucked directly,

This is alink to the designer's website
