Buzz took delivery of it in Atlanta. It's set up like a Les Paul. The luthier is named Kevin. I dinked around on it; I shall be ordering a like custom one next week.
Is Albini a partner or owner of the company??
electrical guitars?
electrical audio?

"luthier". that's about the coolest job title i've ever heard.
Awesome. That's why I thought it was Tim's guitar, it has a similar headstock from a distance. But Tim has a "T" machined into the headstock of his. Tim's also has a wooden body. This is from the Scottsdale show:

I know someone that owns one of these guitars.
Both of the guitarists in the band Oxes also had a couple of these made for them.
I love the fact that you can see every greasy handprint on it when he's playing it. Filthy.
what is it with the aluminium guitars? Is it the sustaaaaain?
I want a guitar completely made of brick!
maybe its just for the durability. buzz has had the neck on his Les Paul broken 6 times apparently.

i use an aluminum neck Kramer bass and i just love the tone. its somehting about the strings sitting on metal that gives it an "icy" kinda tone. listen to Shellac Terraform and feel the aluminum.
Wow.....Looks very nice. Maybe it's to blind all the people using the flash's on their cell phones to take pics :)
Maybe Buzz has gone green. Save the trees.
nah, its his love for METAL!!!

"Sever Exposure" by Six Finger Satellite is another good example. Something about it that makes it sound like it's practically jumping out of the speakers. I'd really like to hear some stuff on the next Melvins record with this new guitar.

did you not see him playing a gay looking baby blue SG with Fanto?
actually its way heavier. at;least my bass is heavy. and it has an "icey" tone to it.
I saw the guitarist from The Jesus Lizard playing an alu on some photo or live footage. I allways wondered why the guitars sound so brilliant on their albums but maybe he just had new strings on them.

That's Crover's baby blue SG he uses with Fantomas. It was given to him by Kurdt Kobain.

That and whatever he is playing in the video for Revolve.

Did Buzz retire the Les Paul? Or does he only whip out the aluminum for a few songs?

It does look pretty sweet.

That thing's gorgeous. I want to hear it.
I can't help but think the Lez Paul would have a fuller sound, though.

more mids for sure. but i think he could compensate a bit with the 15's.

i'd hate to have to play outside on a cold day.
I imagine Gene Simmons licking it with his stupid tongue outside on a icy cold day and it getting stuck to it. It is an amusing image.

Um, my bass is an aluminum neck, if you want to hear a sample, I used it on the track "Dozens" on myspace.com/armofinfant. I'm not worried about everyone hearing it i'm just suggesting it cuz my bass comes through really good on that song.
it's a Kramer
anybody got pics of that blue sg?

I copped a nasty flash during the late show in Melbourne due to a photgrapher taking snaps.
...Buzz said during the show he felt like he was having an acid flashback, and so did I for minute or two after that happened! :lol:
Thanks for all this info people! He used the same gtr for the last two songs of Fantomas' set at The Palace in Melb. after using his Les Paul for the rest of the show.
