Another local luthier

The Builder is known as AOIE, he's out of Gilroy and has the purpleheart 3 neck also on Reverb asking for $7k, as well as an unfinished 12 string he's asking $40k for. The man likes HINGES! The purple one has 3 landing gear so you can ride it like a skateboard (?) It also rolls up into a "rocket shape":... but looks hard(er) to play that way.

They look like something an enthusiastic DIY Uncle in the '60s would make out of scrap with limited hand tools.

Like Suzy Creamcheese used to say: "Bizarre!" That triple-necker looks like it might have been made from a cast-off dining room table. And those hinges, sure the instrument(s) might fit the beer belly curve, otoh might get a few pinches there with the hinge feature, OW!

I need to raise my prices$$$ . Hats off to the guy, always like someone with an idea and the ambition to try and achieve it.
