All Headstocks!!

All Headstocks!!

Because yeah, I want a guitar that deliberately sounds like it needs a fretjob, but oh no, the headstock.

It's a one-trick pony, but it does the trick very well.

It's up a creek without a...

I occasionally get GAS for an electric sitar, though I think I would prefer the more deluxe Coral version to the Baby Sitar. That said, I've never played either type, so I might hate both in person.

I had a Jerry Jones version of this. It was a blast to play. I wish I’d kept it.

I’d rather buy an actual sitar instead.

Which is something that I’ve considered, but it’d be an intimidating time investment.

I would love to give it a try.

I've played an actual sitar on a few occasions.
I'd give a fake one a whirl.

I tried for about a year. It’s like a part-time job if you want to do anything but play Paint it Black because you have to play the instrument, memorize everything, and study recordings. And Indian teachers can be very frustrating because they grew up in an entirely different tradition. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who isn’t obsessed with Indian classical music.

I do gas for one at times, but you can't beat the original Coral electric sitars with the sympathetic strings. In the late 60s our lead guitar player would rent one for gigs for Paint it Black and Norwegian Wood.

It is a kinda pretty little something. But not interested at all.

Not into the Dano one, but Rick 381s collection is pretty great.
