[sdiy] And now, banjotam,reverse guitar!

Indeed.   How 'bout a Banjo-Linn or Banjo-Simmons?   <g>   Ideas whose time

That Keytar . . . kinda scary.   A ugly not-so autoharp?   A sad clavinet?   
Gotta say I'm curious, but not hopeful.

Not usually so critical--esp. of anything that makes a sound,
