Jan 5 2010Shredding The Shell: A Koopa Troopa Guitar
That title I came up with made me think of Shredder and the Ninja Turtles. Did anybody else get that feeling? It felt like a tingle. And I'm not talking about Tingle the map-seller in the Zelda series. Although I do know what he feels like too because he touched my butt once. Creep! Now, where was I? I think I was at the fair when that happened.
The guitar is right handed. I play it so the Koopa is on its back (it's been stomped). When it is on a guitar stand it's walking about. Just pretend Mario jumped on the Koopa Troopa and chose to hold it for too long so it's escaping.
I'm gonna go ahead and give myself advance-props now for not writing a single word about the guitar. Because that's just quality-ass blogging right there. Hey -- some people got it, some people don't. Unfortunately I don't. But I think we can all agree: what I lack in blogging skills I more than make up for in novelty t-shirts. Seriously, I have a ton of them. Take this tuxedo print for instance. Classic.
Hit the jump for a couple more shots of the jam-stick. Do people call guitars that? Because they're gonna start if they don't already!
Bow before the awesomeness of Koopa Troopa guitar [destructoid]
Thanks to Gabe, who can finger pick AND finger lick with the best of them. Mmmm, chicken.

Holy, talk about putting the cock-block in rock. If Tommy lee gets Pam Anderson, this dude gets the fat secretary from the drew carey show.
its made to be played upside-down.

That shell looks as hard as the erections I get when masturbating to Google Image searched pictures of my mental fuck buddy, GW
I try to whack-off to his pix as vigorously as possible and, just as I am about to ejaculate, I contract the muscles in my pelvic floor to retain orgasm. If, and when, I have the encounter with GW I so desire, I will last as long as a (gay) porn star
In the words of Avril Levigne:
"Don't pretend, I think you know I'm damn precious. And hell yeah, I'm a mutha-fuckn princess"
Death to the infidels

P.S.
Is masturbating to GW's "5000th post" picture considered CP?
MORE PERSONAL PICS GW!
Age requirements are irrelevant

I feel like that guitar wouldn't sound very good.
I also feel rather disturbed @naas.

Sorry GW - your title actually made me think of Abba. Awesome post, though, as usual.
Nice Wild Things shirt, Guy. I'll grant you the assumption that you had it before this whole movie business.
17. Kymander - January 5, 2010 3:09 PM
This is pretty damn epic.
18. Dru - January 5, 2010 3:16 PM
@16 I'm totally with you. I was gonna make a really sweet Koopa Troopa pun and do some lyrical amazing before I saw your comment. Now I'd just feel cheap and copy-ing if I did.
Still: Awesome guitar. I'd totally play it. If I knew how to play guitar.
19. Stabherwithyourfleshknife - January 5, 2010 3:34 PM
@ naas... um Wow. if you ever needed to talk to someone... I know some people that might be able to help. If you'd like.
ANYWAY this guitar is awesome. I hope its meant to play upside down because the other way makes it look like someone's about to get lucky. But I love it and I want it.
20. Pat - January 5, 2010 3:34 PM
Not quite as epic as the Millennium Falcon guitar, but awesome nonetheless.
21. Checo - January 5, 2010 3:39 PM
Awesome.

Oh GW!
Thanks for the tip of the hat.
That is a quality blog created from just a simple lead. I shall continue reading and scanning the internet, and maybe someday in the next 5,000 posts. I will find something that gets me some added notoriety
Your faithful reader/servant,
Gabe
