Barry Wood’s NAMM Oddities ’09, a gallery of wonderfully weird musical instruments

Barry Wood’s NAMM Oddities ’09 is a must see gallery of the strange and sometimes even clever musical gear on display at this year’s trade show. This is my favorite collection of gallery linkbait I’ve seen in ages. I had no idea there were such strange things afoot in the world of guitars and musical equipment.

   Have you seen the JT Warlord? Not my cup of tea, but.. http://www.jayturser.com/jt-warlord.php

   Intonation snob that I am, I’ve been wating forever for someone to actually build a fretboard like the True Temperament. I wish I could try one out.

   I’d buy that true-tempered guitar, no problem (assuming it lives up to promise), but I do see a problem with having my luthier do any work on the frets at any time.
