    The creation of renowned French-American multimedia artist and sculptor Pascal Giacomini, Giaco GuitarTM Sculptures are uniquely playable works of art highly prized for both their musical and artistic merits. Technically, they are hybrid oil-can, solid body electric guitars.

    This Capitol Guitar sculpture is made from a medium two-gallon can from the Atlantic Refining Co. in Philadelphia, which became part of John D. Rockefeller’s Standard Oil until it closed in 2019. This is item number 7 out of an eventual collection of 100 Giaco Guitars™ made by the artist. Each item in the collection is a one-of-a-kind, impossible to reproduce creation.

    Specs for this Guitar Sculpture include:

    • Honduras Mahogany wood resonating chamber assembled under pressure (a signature Giacomini invention)
    • Custom shop Telecaster neck
    • Lindy Fralin pickups
    • Gabriel Tenorio Strings

    Testimonial:

    “The guitar is comfortable at high velocity and gives you freedom to experiment. Major tone. You feel the vibration in your body stronger and different than an acoustic guitar. Unusual low bar access. A different ergonomic allows for an extended finger picking. An electric guitar that you can play sitting down.”
