This is a video of luthier Burls Art making two electric guitars with thin layers of translucent slate, complete with backlit tops so light filters through the stone from behind. That’s beautiful. Too beautiful to smash on stage at the end of a concert? Considering all the time and energy that went into making them, it would be a crime. Plus they’re selling for like $7,000 apiece. I’m not even allowed to look at things that expensive for very long. Just a passing glance is all I get. Plus my girlfriend will poke me in the butt if I touch anything over $100, which has caused a lot of drops.
