Fantastic Photo Glenn..Amazing details !
Glenn DiPaola replied:
Thank you John. I've never seen one like it, doubt I ever will. Can't help but see a face in it.

Amazing clarity here, Glenn, & I have to say I'm not familiar with this type of guitar {my knowledge of guitars is pretty limited ... } ; it looks like it would be complicated to play ... ambidexterity might be helpful!;))
Glenn DiPaola replied:
Thanks Connie. 3 or 4 arms might help. It's a one of a kind instrument. Quite a though to imagine this and remarkable construction by some talented person.
Bill Cannon

Very unusual instrument. I've never seen one before. No way I could not see a face in it.
