Tony Cochran Guitars Custom #32    

This is the only electric guitar in existence fitted with a "Quick". The inventor, Frank Dombus, adapted this device to many musical instruments, including 2 saxophones and a unique electric bongo drum. In theory, the chrome sonic torquer bars between the pickups are receivers for the "Quick" which appears to be what Frank labeled the framework of ominous electric looking paraphernalia wedged into the guitar below the bridge. It would get hot, it would smoke, it would vibrate, and it stunk to hell when running, but it would take notes from average all the way to "what in the world". If it was a good note, it would sail to the sublime, but if it was a bad note, it became so bad that people actually became angry at the violation. Frank let one sorry guitar player borrow it for a gig one night and so many notes hit so many people so very wrong they never found the fellow again. The guitar resurfaced in the late 80's with the "Quick" device still amazingly warm to the touch.
