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...

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
