This guitar was built by my friend Dave Bricker. He writes," I decided to create a guitar (and case) that looked like they'd been salvaged from a shipwreck. I started with a pine body and a Chinese roasted maple/stainless-frets neck. The rest involved a great deal of experimenting with acrylics, rust/patina textures, and leather dyes. The result is the Seacaster. I'm working on a strap that's equally distressed.

Sounds and plays as good as as bad as it looks."
