 TEISCO KAWAI SORRENTO BANANA MOON SIGHAn Extraordinary ONE OF A KIND PIECE OF ART BY THE ARTIST-el daga. PLEASE LOOK AT MY OTHER GUITARS AND BUY ONE. IT IS GETTING COLD HERE AND I AM STARVING AS AN ARTIST SHOULD.Un lugar de mi propio!A place of my own. I am happy for your visit to my presentation of my art. And thank you to my friends at tuneyoursound.com for helping me get started with my own ebay home so that I can share my el arte de la guitarra with you.And now onto the REFLECTIONS, INTROSPECTIONS, AND MANIFESTATIONS OF THE ARTIST EYE MIND.ANOTHER DAY.  ANOTHER CREATION. Furtherance to the music and the art that makes it live for all of us.Gracias por siempre, El Daga.A DESCRIPTION OF THIS el arte de la guitarra:A third time, I apologize. I completely reshaped this guitar and cannot remember what it was originally. I seem to believe that it was a TEISCO but I am not sure. The name on the headstock was "FENDER" SORRENTO BUT i believe   Could be KAWAI, TEISCO, OR HOSHINO (IBANEZ). It is an early 1960's MADE IN JAPAN guitar that sounds great. IT IS A TRUE EL REFLECTO GUITAR FROM EL DAGA. It can be seen from space once a light hits it. A TRUE PIECE OF PERFORMANCE ART. I love the shape of this guitar. It reminds me so much of my Kawai Moonsault pieces. But this one is a real flashy player. You will enjoy it. And it will show you up-I mean that. I tried it out with a strobe and it was incredible. Especially rocking it back and forth-it created this great semi circle that will put out half the eyes in the audience when you play it in a crowd. It plays and it sounds tinny, whiny, and all those great Japanese guitar sounds that make us love to play them and hear them. Always helps to douse them with some beverage before starting them up-kinda like starting fluid. If Jimi Hendrix had owned one of my guitars, he would never have struck a match onstage except to light a smoke.  THIS IS A VERY ARTISTIC PIECE SHOWING HOW I BELIEVE GUITAR SHAPES SHOULD BE SHAPED. IT IS THE ONLY ONE OF THIS DESIGN.Comes with a gig bag. ART, THE GUITAR, AND THE CREATION DONE. THE el daga (eld) Story."Immediately engaging". "A simple, yet complete definition of art" says el daga, an artist who is a true gospeler of "escultra social"-social sculpture- as a term derived from the German conceptual artist Joseph Beuys, who proposed that sculpture, if made from everyday materials and displayed in a "real world" setting, has the potential to affect society most broadly. His concentration is on form and content. eld's work focus on the themes of the transformation of everyday materials, social engagement with the public, and the impact of music, popular media and performance.Most recently, eld has approached the concept of performative art by looking at the combination of art form (as object) that transforms into performance art (content) by use of light and sound with interaction of performance artist. He has adopted the locution "Ephemeral Performative Art" to provide ascription to this current body of work. Eld is serving as the protagonist for this new and refreshing art form. His initial work began as an exploration into what percipients respond to while experiencing a live concert of musicians playing traditional musical instruments. Beyond feeling the throbbing of the musical sounds and hearing the musicality of the performance, Eld quickly recognized the underutilization of the basic principle of sensory stimulation in regard to the performative actions of the artist.   Traditionally the use, and overuse, of lighting and visual effects have become more distractive than contributory to the total pleasurable and meaningful sensory experience of the viewer. Having worked as a visual artist and played guitar, Eld immediately combined the impacts of light and musical instrument to produce truly unique and defining pieces of performative art.   By adhering to his basic philosophy of "escultra social"-social sculpture, he gathered a wide variety of used electric and acoustic guitars and combined them with other commonly available everyday materials to produce his "Ephemeral Performative Art" pieces. He soon coined the monkier "El Reflecto" to describe his first pieces that utilize highly light reflective material on guitars to make them interact individually and specifically to all light sources. With an "El Reflecto"   guitar, the performing artist now becomes an art object him/herself by allowing the guitar to respond and react to all light sources or as he describes it "the guitar receives and transmits light as it becomes an integral part of the performance". Not only is this art form revolutionary, it is also totally complementary to any artist performance. Eld has also extended his artistic liberty to the creation of other pieces that combine the complimentary (wood and leather) and co
