That sounds a bit outlandish, but if that was a serious story, sorry for your luck.

These new Teles come with built-in pyrotechnic effects now? Sounds like something probably best saved for the big gigs though, they should come with a "don't try this at home" warning.

:roll:

Huh? The only time I'v ever heard of that happening, the guitar needed lighter fluid to do the deed, or so the Hendrix legend goes. Maybe Ace Frehley has a Tele model out now-he had a LP that shot out fireballs, supposedly, years ago.

Old tube amps going kaboom? I've had that happen to me once. Burnt transformers sure don't smell like victory, and don't need napalm.

I can understand burning your hands on the old fashioned "steam guitars" but not on the more modern "electric guitars."

Heck, you needed a boiler operator's license to play those "steam guitars."

I could plug a guitar into a wall socket and it wouldn't burst into flames.
