Hey Guys,
Gary Kramer is back in the guitar biz with a new Delta Wing guitar. Personally, I like the look.
Gary's website is here:
A great interview with Gary in Premier Guitar Magazine is here:

Speaking just from a woodworking point of view, I hope there's another layer of wood underneath whose grain goes lengthwise, to strengthen that horn.

Good point mrblanche. I think that vertical grain is just a top but I still don't think you want to knock it off of a guitar stand. Now that I look at it, is there any guitar stand that will hold it?
I still like the form, even if it might be impractical in some respects. sb

From a purely esthetic point of view, I love it. The form is great, the wood is striking. Even if it's not good for anything but hanging on a wall, I'd go for it!
And yes, I think most stands would hold it.
