Eel Guitar Resurfaces (from the depths of northern Alabama)

April 10, 2014

Today I got an email from a man in northern Alabama. Several years ago I painted a guitar for a highschool friend. He asked me to paint something on it so I created an Electric Eel for an electric guitar. I think I remember him auctioning it off for a charity. I gave the eel painted instrument to him and haven’t seen it again, until today!

The man from Hunstville wrote me the following…

“I found this guitar for sale http://huntsville.craigslist.org/msg/4383317829.html and after a little googling found out you were the artist who painted it. 

Unfortunately someone removed the bolts from the front, but I just wanted to drop a line and let you know I thought it was pretty rad.”

He had been looking for used guitars online and wanted this one. He and the owner couldnt agree on a price so he moved on. I am thankful he took the time to locate and email me.

Take a look here at the ad. The person that is trying to sell it doesnt think to highly of my artwork. Sad and funny all at once (like a lot of things in life.)

Take care of yourself ol’ eel. Maybe we will meet again one day.
