Old British Busker Builds Machine-Controlled Guitar
October 14, 2008 by Geeks are Sexy | 1 commentYou got to give it to the ingenious old chap for coming up with such an awesome steampunk-esque musical machine. And in case you’re wondering why he decided to build this, he has all the reasons listed on a little sign he displays during his performances.
I built this machine because of unreliable guitarists.
It don’t smoke!
It don’t drink!
And it’s never late.

This is brilliant!
I know a busker in the NYC subway who built a machine that enables him to play drums with his feet while he plays guitar with his hands, but this is even better.
Very cool!
