okay gearheads, heres a bizarre question for ya'll. i've been playing guitar most of my life, and this one is new to me. i've been doing some work for a charity auction, and somebody donated an oldish acoustic guitar, not quite sure of the brand, but it played real nice. the only thing about it... its got a golf club throug it, a four word to be exact. someone drilled holes in the body, took the head off the club and put the shaft through, and then reattached the head. does anyone have any idea why someone would do this? does it affect the sound or anything, or is it someones weird attempt at art? anyway, if anyone knows anything, please let me know, the auction organizer is a bit of a hottie, so if i could solve this one, it would be really great for me, hehe.

thanks

    Never heard of such a thing, but it sounds really cool to me.....I'd hang it on my wall if I could (and play it once in a while too).
    Cause I'll stop trying to make a difference. I'm not trying to make a difference. I'll stop trying to make a difference. No way!

    That's still not as unusual as John Fogarty's baseball bat guitar, which is essentially a wide baseball bat cut in half laterally, wired up, fretted, and strung. He uses it for that song "Center Field".

    Took a while to find this pic...
