Genesis Hero!

by Jonic Linley on April 18th, 2006

The guys over at Game Set Watch just found this beauty on eBay:

A wierd looking guitar right?

Wrong… Look closely and you’ll see that the body of this guitar is actually a Sega Genesis.

The eBay description runs thusly:

Custom crafted Sega Genesis Electric Guitar. Looks cool, sounds cool.

Yes the guitar is real and yes it works and works great! No, the game system is not functional, but it is a real Sega Genesis.

One of a kind collectors item for the guitarist or the video game enthusiast. Don’t miss out on this one time offer to own your very own, unique, all in one collectable.

The starting (and current) price is a mere $99… Which isn’t bad considering it’s a functioning electric quitar, although given the price I’m a little skeptical as to whether or not it will actually “sound cool”. For a start the seller hasn’t provided any information on the electrics inside, pickup or the make of neck. I’m a massive Sega fan and also a retro game freak as well as a guitarist, but even so I don’t think I’d pick this up, even for $99.

If you’re the Sega retro game fan/guitarist that the seller is looking for then check out the auction.
