Like much of the internet, the stupid rules are made by stupid people in charge.

For instance, YouTube censors many nude images by blurring them out - but you can clearly hear every mother-effer, biotch, shite, etc.

Taraffo playing a Gazzo:

A duet:

A friend of mine places his harp on a hollow box to amplify the sound it produces. The hollow stand of the harp guitarmay do something similar.
Who on the forum will be the first to take on the challenge to build one of these?
