Oriolo guitars

I guess it's not really news, but I doubt most people have heard of them. I've never seen a real one myself, but it looks like they have lots of cool stuff, short scales too, electrics, acoustics, lots of Felix the Cat models: Oriolo (click here)

wacky shit.

It's probably not very adventurous of me but I kind of dig the rockabilly model.
I'd be interested to see how these designs translate as actual objects...

At first I was like: these look fucking stupid.

Then I was like:

YEAH DUDE

Phahaha! Another guitar company to google themselves and have their feelings grazed. However I'm not entirely sure they're still going. It seems you can only get a few guitars direct from Oriolo, and I bet some of the crazier designs were never built at all.

I like this little one. Sounds good too.

I don't understand how some of them have Felix headstocks or whatever with no tuners etc...? This seems like some kid's highschool web page project.

I quite like the Felix Vibro Tail.

Would never own unless I saw one in a shop for like $200 or something, but it's totally cool to look at anyway.

There's a second marked-down to $125 on Amazon. I wanted to buy it cos it's 3/4 scale and might be good for my daughter when she's old enough to learn. However the seller hasn't said whether they'll send it here.

There's tuners there:

I'm curious about the back of the headstock myself.

I'd reckon to guess they're using some sort of knock-off of Steinberger gearless tuners or old Firebird tuners
