Reverb.com has posted an excerpt from Electric Guitars Design & Invention, a new book from acclaimed guitar author Tony Bacon, published by Hal Leonard.
"Ulrich Teuffel is a guitar maker based in Neu-Ulm in southern Germany, about halfway between Stuttgart and Munich. His best-known guitar design is the Birdfish, which he has built since 1995 among his other models. The Birdfish looks nothing like a regular instrument, with its skeletal plated-aluminium frame and two wooden bars instead of a conventional body, a headless maple neck, and interchangeable pickups."
