Owen Burke is an artist and musician whose "medium" is guitars. He has been building them for over twenty years for private clients and is an amazing innovator with original techniques, materials, and concepts (e.g. making combined fretted/fretless instruments, incorporating resonators for sitar-like effects, etc.). These are all perfectly musically usable, playable instruments, most incorporating pickups in addition to being acoustic.
We at ArtCourant decided to show them here because we feel that they are truly works of art, and we think you'll agree.
You can see more of his creations, such as his new line of ukeleles, here.
