Guitar Shaped House
(with comments)
At Google Sightseeing: Rock n Roll.
There's nothing more Rock n Roll than a swimming pool in the shape of a guitar, so I wonder which rock god owns this pad near L'Estartit in Spain. Actually, I take that back - having your whole house built into the shape of a guitar is truly Rock n roll, so hats off the the anonymous owner of this guitar house in Fayetteville, Georgia.

And I do believe a banjo head would make a better roof..no soundhole! :) - By . Comment posted 16-Aug-2006 @05:13pm:Isn't that a banjo barn across the road from the main house?
- By . Comment posted 16-Aug-2006 @07:24pm:Good eye. I didn't notice that banjo barn!
- By Woody. Comment posted 16-Aug-2006 @07:29pm:I've been in the house! It's not far from where I live and I had to respond to an emergency there many years ago. I vaguely remember it being a little chopped up on the inside, and it's looking pretty run down, now. We have some eccentric people around, including Evander Hollyfield whose mansion is a little over a mile north. His July 4th fireworks show is better than those in a lot of towns.
