Smoker's delight


I'm not sure how I keep finding these weird guitars but this is definitely one of the craziest so far! The cannibis leaf shaped guitar is by guitar manufacturer Basone Guitars and is made from bookmatched quilted western maple, a flame maple neck a Koa headstock veneer and ebony fretboard with a "joint" abalone inlay at the 12th fret. I imagine the person who buys this will spend more time staring at it giggling than actually playing it but I challenge anyone to actually play this sitting down!

A guitar design for stoners may have been inevitable. If they really want to impress, let's see them set it up with hemp strings. That's a product with NORML endorsement written all over it.

I was just thinking that there should have been some sort of hemp used in the fabrication process, but I wasn't sure whether you can actually make solid durable objects from hemp? Strong enough say for a nut? Or volume pots (pun intended!).
