I saw it on a John Otway documentary years ago.
It was all made of wood and had all sort-of levers and stops and groaned and creaked.

No, I think that might be something recent.
This was something made 20-30 years ago and looked a lot like his bits of furniture and artworks.

This is a thread for the weird and wild and wacky and plain wonderful musical instruments ever created or customised.
To start off with, the furry guitars ZZ Top played in the video for "Legs".
Quote :
Dean Guitars created the pair of matching guitars shown in the music video, based on the Dean Z model, but painted white and covered in fluffy white sheepskin. Dean also painted the band's "ZZ " logo extending the length of each fretboard.
Gibbons had picked up the sheepskin while touring in Scotland, and sent it to Dean for the custom project.
Both the 4-string bass guitar and 6-string standard required the sheepskin to be trimmed away from the strings so that they could sustain.
The glue was still drying on the sheepskin covering the tuning pegs when the guitars were couriered to the video shoot

Look at the size of that lute.
Assuming it's a lute.
