Photos: Peter Okoye Shows Off His Newly Acquired $433K Transparent Guitar

Unknown | Wednesday, September 17, 2014 |
yesterday, Sept. 16, Peter Okoye, one of the P Square brothers posted a picture of him rocking a special transparent guitar in their home studio on his Instagram.

It's called an Acrylic 5 String Bass Guitara.k.a transparent guitar a.k.a "a see-through" and is allegedly manufactured by a Chinese company called Alibaba. It's a jazz bass guitar used my musicians to help enhance their sound.

We also went ahead to get the cost of the musical instrument and behold it was less than a hundred thousand Naira! It streches around N72,000 ($433K) . Meaning, fans could actually afford a guitar used by the famous Psquare and if used right, can get the same sound the twin bangs the continent with! Continue Reading...

However, according to menga.net, the acrylic guitar is one of the WORSE GUITARS any artistes can ever own. Why? There are three reasons for this:

Acrylic does absolutely nothing for tone or sustain no matter what anyone says.


The body is unbelievably heavy. Even heavier than a 1970s Les Paul. It's absolutely required to wear a well-padded guitar strap if you dare play this thing standing up.


No guitar player has ever said that they prefer an acrylic body. That has never happened in the history of electric guitars, and never will.

So, the site adviced that no one should buy an acrylic-bodied guitar. Stay away from these things, they concluded.

After reading this we started to wonder if Peter was holding something special and essencial or are we suppose to inform him about the bad sides to that guitar he is happily showing off?

By the way he is using the guitar for rehearsals ahead of their "Double Trouble" tour coming up in a "country or city near you"!
