Does anybody have good pictures of Syd's Mirror Disk Esquire? I personally think this is the coolest looking guitar in history, and I REALLY want one of my own. So I'm going to make one! What can you tell me about this guitar?
SS, your avatar has a very serious looking Syd, who, under the circumstances of my above posts, seems to be saying: "you think you're funny, huh, punk?"
Sorry there mhspiper...I would have thought somebody would have posted a pic by now.
Well at least it's not the mad avatar that I had yesterday, thanks to Public Image!
I had a picture of the mirrored guitar...I just can't put my finger on it. One of the Astral Pipers made a replica of it too, but the thread has been archived and I can't get to it!
My mirror discs are glass came from an electronics store here called Active Surplus and I remember they came in packages of 5, for use with lasers or something...yes, I emptied many packages, but used those packages in another art work...
Fender should make a limited edition "Syd Barrett" signature edition of their Telecaster Squire with the mirrors all over it. I bet it would sell out in about two seconds.
There have been on-line petitions for this exact request, and there have been hundreds of signatures collected. But, who knows if the request will ever translate into reality.
Really? I don't remember hearing anything about that. That is, unless my booze soaked brain has been playing tricks on me. Jeez...I think I'd drag out my credit card for one of those. Fender really should do it. I think it would be immensely popular. Wow...one of those would look so cool strapped around my neck
