Linda is a fairly famous luthier from Canada.

She made this guitar - though I've heard people refer to it as a "sympitar." I'm not actually sure if that's a proper classification - or if it can actually be properly classified.

This guitar has some fame and the unfortunate thing is that the owner is not actually a very good guitar player. I've followed it since it first appeared in a guitar magazine. So far, he's not actually made any good music with it - in my opinion.

That's not entirely a negative comment. I strongly suspect that the guitar simply offers him more choices than he's capable of processing and that's going to be difficult for anyone to adjust to. It's a very complicated guitar.

I like to think I have some skills - but I'm not sure that I'd be able to pull it off. You can bet your ass that I'd like to try! It's a pretty sweet guitar and I figured I'd share it, in case you don't know about it.

For the non-players, a guitar like this is going to get noticed and is going to end up in the guitar magazines. This one has some fame but there's not a whole lot of call for his results. I'd seriously like to get my hands on it for a few months, just to see what comes out the other side.

With guitar, having six strings is optional!
