Rich Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 You might think that all you need are a couple of basses and maybe a guitar. Possibly a keyboard too, maybe even a drum kit or a brass instrument. You might think you're got a pretty comprehensive setup there, that you've got all the bases covered. Wrong. Your collection is [i]nothing [/i]without a theremin built into a badger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yes, it's certainly a must(elidae)-have for the discerning naturalist/musician. However, I'd like one made with an otter. Who's going to make me an otter I can re-use?

mrtcat Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Pretty sure its illegal to be in posession of a dead badger in the UK. Reckon the judge would let you off though as he'll not want to set a precedence which means he'll not be allowed one himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
