Electric guitar

a 1959, rosewood slab-board stratocaster

The greatest design in the last two hundred years is wonderful Fender Stratocaster: a design so good that they haven’t managed to improve it at all since Leo Fender invented it in 1954. Ok: maybe the introduction of a rosewood fretboard in 1959. But that’s it. And it kills fascists, too.

Stratocasters aren’t really metaphors for anything in particular. I just like them.
