I see one of these and I go to youtube to look at the Super Mario theme being played on a similar instrument. I had to explain it to Lisa, she had no idea how anyone would begin to play on one.

With a neck that wide, is there anyway to play it other than tapping? Reminds me of a Chapman Stick.

It looks like a Warr Guitar to me. But custom built? Hmmm....

One of my favorite bands, Behold... The Arctopus uses one:
