Well, I've got the bagpipes/Enfield one covered.

How about an Airsoft with a drum kit? 'Cuz the Airsoft isn't a real gun, and drummers aren't really musicians...:evil:





(I'm kidding! Really!)
 
Bo diddley's rectangular gretch guitar:

Glock pistol, this one fittingly a training gun in red:

Same design philosophy, yet both quite attractive to a certain segment of the market :D
 
A Kazoo with a FAMAS, or Mas 49? Don't matter cause you're only gonna use it once then throw it away. :D

A flute and a Hi-point? 'Cause unless you're Jethro Tull it just ain't cool.


Bagpipes? Music? Brought to you by people that think golf is a game, haggis is food, sheep are your friends, and men in skirts are cool. I don't know what comes out of a bagpipe, but it ain't music.
 
Skunk, you are so out there with some of your posts.

But I like it.

My son has an Elmo guitar and rubber band handgun.

I have a Taylor guitar and a Beretta handgun.
 
I've actually thought about buying a Garand for the purpose of matching it with my guitar...seriously!
 
I have seen the Steinberger-Glock comparison before. I didn't like it then and I don't like it now.

If I were to compare a Glock to a guitar, it would be the Fender Telecaster. No fancy schmancy doo-dads on either. Just the best tool for the job
 
How about:

a 59 Fender Strat (with the obligatory blackface twin) and a S&W M19,

or

a black Fender Jazz bass (with the obligatory Ampeg SVT) and an Ithaca 37?

You go Skunk, I love your threads.
 
If I were going to match a Garand to a guitar it would have to be either a Gibson J200, or a big Taylor acoustic, Skunk.

My combo is a Gibson Gothic SG and a SigPro 2340.
My backup combo would be my Peavy T-60 and Mossberg 590.
My dad's combo is a Fender Nashville Telecaster and an old S&W 10-5.

Actually, the Irish invented the bagpipe and gave it to the Scots, who still haven't figured out that it was a practical joke. ;)

Now don't go knocking the Scots. I enjoy golf, wool is a great thing, and don't knock wearing a kilt until you've tried it. :evil: But be ready to defend yourself if you go out drinking with one on in certain parts of the country.
 
And one more tidbit...

The banjo is actually an instrument who's roots are in Africa. Its a derivative of an African instrument and the banjo first became a popular instrument durring the early beginings of jazz in this country with black musicians. It only gained its popularity with rurual whites after the civil war, because of the troops exposure to it from slaves who had built crude versions of the modern version.

Want to come say that in person?:fire: Not all of us are the talentless wannabes who give the instrument a bad rep.

Taylor hasn't been around long enough (?). The Martin D-28 is the quintessential country guitar, and the most sought after are the pre-war herringbones, at least in country circles.

I think it's a lot like the Garand that people have gone onto other things that are smaller, lighter, tacticaller, electric, trendy, and have all sorts of goofy accessories (plug a guitar in a socket? WHAAAT??? :D) etc., but the trusty 1930-1940s era American oldies can hold their own and still pack a punch.

Showoff time
