Hey, if you edit the OP's link to just rondomusic.net, you get some pretty cool accordions that outprice their best guitars. But actually cool are the pics of the store in 1959 if you scroll down.

this is so wrong ....
this was eluded to earlier but i'm gonna post it anyway...
this dude dies and goes to heaven and being a big guitar freak he wants to see some greats that passed before so he goes to the big heaven venue and there on the stage is SRV, Danny Gatton, and Hendrix all jammin thier butts off when out of nowhere he hears the first lick of Layla ...he turns to the guy beside him and says ah what happened to Clapton how did he die....
the guy says relax ....it's God ...sometimes he likes to think he's Clapton
yeah i know kinda lame ...but it's late

I wonder how the growing Christian music genre will affect the guitar's rock image in the future.
Do you think that at the Fender and Gibson corporate offices they're strategizing how to fend this off and keep the guitar positioned as the badass icon it's always been? I mean, how many 13 yr old guys are going to want a gtr if the girls stop throwing their clothes at the stage?
If this wholesomeness thing doesn't stop, in a few years the elec gtr might go the way of the accordion.

I was wrong...
Jesus dropped by last night w/ a keg can..
We started jammin and I noticed his new pickup combo was a Pearly Gates and a Humbucker from Hell..
His sound was really Good & Evil...

I've always heard: What is the difference between God and Yngwie Malmsteen?
God doesn't believe he's Yngwie.
Tim...
I believe Steven Curtis Chapman has a Taylor endorsement. Most Christian musicians know good interments from bad and those who can play the best and have for decades. I don’t think the guitar will go the way of the accordion because of that.

Uh-oh, I've got to stop posting tongue-in-cheek because I keep getting serious responses when I do.

Yep, nothing like professed Christians making a mockery of Christ... is it Christmas already?
Now THAT'S humorous!
I guess the best "Christian-rock" guitar would have to be inlaid with S.Clauses, bunnies, eggs, crosses and all the other pagan symbols.
Oops, I did it again. I'm sorry, don't mean to be controversial or to steer towards religious discussion (lest we unleash fundamentalist fury).
But it's not people being offended we should be worried about. "Trembling at men is what lays a snare..." - Proverbs 29:25
Sorry, just couldn't help it. I'll shut up now.
I have nothing but love and respect for all of you!

Hah! Pretty funny stuff!
I too play(ed) in a couple of christian rock bands, and am currently one of the worship leaders of our church.......I also play bass and electric.
a couple of funnies....
After I purchased my Geddy Lee signature jazz bass, I had it up at church dialing it in, and I noticed that on the leo Quan (SP?) bridge, it says "BadAss II" on it......I kind of chuckled to myself as I showed our percusionist. About that time the pastor walks up as says: "What's so funny?"........So I show him the bridge........He just smiled and shook his head as he walked away.
The guys a fanominal acoustic player and has been known to be heard playing some James Taylor on his Martin.....Cracks me up when I hear him playing stairway to heaven!
I play a lot of different guitars at the church, but I love breaking out my Custom Jackson Soloist Black on black w/ Duncans in it ( SH-6 in the bridge).....it really screams........it takes me back to my early eighties shreadin' days!
Cool stuff!

man, this reminds me of when i was visiting dryden ontario, a wayyyy up north, and i went to church with the people I was staying with.
they were free methodist, and they had this church rock band.
the man was a french dude i believe, and he had this early 60's (he figured 64' i believe) ES-335 I creamed man, I just had to ask if I could take a rip
and I did, i was afraid though, cause I was in church... haha
the church band lacked a few things though:
dual 100watt plexi stacks, a drummer who was gonna play, and a bassist using dual 100 watt plexi stacks, haha.
thats the kind church i can get into, and I definately did!@

Okay, so if it's the case that Jesus prefers single coils, then The Byrds ("Jesus Is Just All Right") are going to hell 'cause McGuinn's Rickenbacker had humbuckers, while Norman Greenbaum is goin' on up to the "Spirit In The Sky" 'cause he used a Telecaster (single coils), right?
I don't think we need to worry, however. It is said that when we reach judgement day, so long as we acknowledge and ask forgiveness for our sins, God won't cast us into hell. I'm not sure if that means to continue playing our humbuckers with impunity, until then, but if you're like me, sometimes ya gotta live on the edge.
