WTF Pic...... SFW

[Butler Trumpet]

Does anyone have any idea at all what is going on here?

Im guessing that those cables are amplifying somehow.... but is it hooked up to a weaving machine??? is that what that is?

WTF?

It looks like its a system for tightening the strings with foot pedals to get a different sound.

Never seen it used before though.

Gosh, that's a lot of cables.

Where did you get that picture?

Yeah I thought of that too.... but there are way to many cables.... assuming you have one cable per string, and that is a 6 string guitar..... so Im not sure

And I got this pic off of Facebook..... its like myspace, but for college kids only.

Any other thoughts?

maybe its a do-hicky for the thing on the floor. As he play the thing on the ground plays another tune....but i know one thing....it looks really stupid.

find him and ask him....

...as a musician....the string tuning is logical....

...bu ti do know ONE thing....im sure its WAY top heavy...

 

[Queso]

Is it an experimental device to help guitarists who lose their left hands?

No smiley this time. Serious thought.

 

[gallagb]

my guess

it looks like the foot pedals are connected to the top of the strings

so... prolly a tuneing type thing

y don't u ask the guy on facebook what the deal is then tell us!
(or tell me where to find him & i'll go ask him - i'm on face book...)

This looks like a homebrew pedal steel mod to a standard guitar... must be a $^&&3? to hold with all that weight on the headstock. Neck warping in the near future too, I guess.
