Too obvious, but I can't resist.
It's a Viagra-Tone EX-69 made by the Sigmund Freud Guitar Works.
Definitely post-war.
Cool guitar, nine months after you buy it little ukuleles show up in your house.

Give the truss 'rod' a tweak and you'll be 'bangin' out tunes in no time.  |

| It looks to me like one of those guitars made by the BARF Bros. from Regurgetate, Ohio. |

What's so unusual about an acoustical guitar with the bridge missing? It's obviously under construction.
You guys just don't get it;___it's those curved strings that are so unusual.

| Someone should adjust the truss rod....that neck has one helluva warp to it! |

It's sad they didn't raise the strings about 3/8" so it could be played with a bar...

What, you guys didn't know Salvador Dali built guitars as a sideline?
He built several models, the Dali Lama, the Rubber Dali(several years before Ovation!),and the beginner's model, the "Hello Dali." |
