Here's another bizarro on eBay. Looks like a 4-neck National (!) with amplifier built underneath. Custom… handmade? You tell me.

I love the way the seller says it doesn't come with picks, as if that would affect the price.

Gee, "it probably needs to be tuned!" I sure wouldn't buy a guitar that required tuning !

That weirdo is definitely a butchered National .... Yuck !

Never seen one of those....looks like a shoe shine station. The case on legs looks like a smoker. Leave it to ebay...

Thankyou for posting this! Gut-busting laughs (especially about the 'picks not included' comment... oh man... hilarious).
But seriously, are there any legit quadruple necks out there?

Don't forget; this might be only a ghost of a dead National. If it goes for over $60,000 it could set a record for steel guitar prices.

I won't bid at all, unless the picks are included.

It looks like some sort of National Frankenstein. It might be a source of parts for someone restoring a National Console.
