The Handle Guitar

Yesterday I was browsing the net about weird guitars and I found this cool guitar, THE HANDLE. The most revolutionary electric guitar of our times. An extremely advanced musical instrument which is a result of combining new acoustica studies, a striking formal identity and cutting edge technology. That's what they say about it.
It is an XOX Audio Tools product, designed by the award winning designer Peter Solomon. The Handle is mono-chassis, from headstock to the body of the guitar is completely manufactured out of carbon fiber (Wow! Just like the body of F1 race cars). Surprisingly, carbon fiber offers a much wider harmonic range than wood.
The body is mostly cutaway, resulting in an extremely lightweight instrument (4.85 lbs). This also creating a resonance chamber similar to that of a semi-acoustic guitar. Its mono-chassis construction favors direct transmission of acoustic vibrations without sound dampening nor loss. The fretboard is constructed of a pressure-formed thermostat laminate containing twenty-four full-scale frets, and the neck has a slim tapered profile measuring a 12” radius.
The handle was designed for comfort. Its concave form anatomically fits the body, its thin profile of the neck for all 24 frets, and its lightweight offer truly pleasing experience to anyone who plays it.
