Looks like an expensive acoustic electric.

I'm sure it is but I don't see the wire. Is a big body Gibson?

I think it is acoustic/electric, George Michael mimed with it, in an attempt to look a bit like Elvis.

Looks like a Gretsch Synchromatic w/o the pickguard.

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!


It definitely looks very similar to that Gretch, but maybe a slightly different model. The headstock is shaped a little different, and the bridge is a bit different as well, but other than that, it looks pretty much like the same guitar without the pickguard.
