Centerfold Guitar: by DeVillain

You don’t need to be 18 to have fun with this centerfold.

Swedish airline pilot Fredrik Johansson got tired of trying to find a place to store his guitar on the plane and decided to take maters into his own hands. The DeVillain Guitar Company and its first product, Centerfold, is a folding electric guitar. The strings roll up as the maple neck and rosewood fingerboard folds back onto the Honduras mahogany base. It takes about 20 seconds to fold and unfold the instrument. Surprisingly the strings stay well tuned, you’ll probably have to perform a quick fine adjustment, same as any other guitar after breaking it out of the case. Catch the video demo by Maurice Spencer; I swear the background music is from Crocodile Dundee, but whatever, it’s a good demo.
