Members Chordite Posted October 4, 2015 Members Share Posted October 4, 2015 I'm looking at my shed full of junk and thinking maybe I will build something like this. I guess a tele with its acres of paving slab frontage is the best candidate http://www.premierguitar.com/article...ectric_Guitars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members *BLEEP* Posted October 5, 2015 Members Share Posted October 5, 2015 :cough: I'm guessing you meant steam punk geetars. steam·punk ˈstēmˌpəNGk/ noun a genre of science fiction that typically features steam-powered machinery rather than advanced technology.

Members Chordite Posted October 5, 2015 Author Members Share Posted October 5, 2015 Thanks Bleep, I did indeed, (as you get geriatric words get more nebulous ) I'll try and correct it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chordite Posted October 5, 2015 Author Members Share Posted October 5, 2015 Being an artist I did make this piece for an exhibition a while ago, although it is not quite steam punk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Minor point of correction on that article in the OP (and I know the author was being hyperbolic for effect), but the first man-made satellite was Sputnik, which wasn't launched until 1957, so whatever satellite "crashed into his yard in 1956" must have been alien in origin - or maybe he got the year wrong?

Members DeepEnd Posted October 5, 2015 Members Share Posted October 5, 2015 Steampunk is a subset of science fiction fandom, as is "filking," which is SF/Fantasy related singing and songwriting. For that matter, I write and sing filk myself, although I'm not into steampunk. One of those might be right at home in a filk band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WRGKMC Posted October 5, 2015 Members Share Posted October 5, 2015 They look like the right guitar for this guy. You can nickname the guitar Hugh I'd think the guitar would scare all but the skankiest chicks away. If prosthetics are your thing, I'm sure the guitar might attract your ideal dream date with all kinds of metal hanging out of her face.

Members DeepEnd Posted October 6, 2015 Members Share Posted October 6, 2015 . . . I'd think the guitar would scare all but the skankiest chicks away. . . . . . . I'm sure the guitar might attract your ideal dream date with all kinds of metal hanging out of her face. (and other places) . . . That's a very big assumption. The fact that a woman is into steampunk--or piercings for that matter--doesn't make her a skank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
