" Kayak Race "

Guitar

After attending the annual Wausau Whitewater Kayak races, I decided to recreate the excitement of this fun experience on the guitar I was given. I have even included some sand and rocks from the riverbank of the kayak course on my sculpture! I took the fretboard off the guitar and formed it into the kayaks. The guitar's tuners are the kayaker's paddles.
