Arndt Anderson Magnum aluminum and magnesium guitar on eBay. This is a pretty interesting guitar (magnesium/aluminum). Here is a partial description of the listing:

"This guitar was made by master machinist Arndt Anderson, who worked with bands such as Missing Persons and Def Leppard. His aluminum and magnesium guitars were at one time played by Warren Cuccurullo of Missing Persons. I believe Trevor Rabin of Yes also had one of these guitars. I included a photo of Warren with one of the MAG guitars, and another one can be seen in the video for the song “Give” (video can be found on youtube). At the time I purchased this guitar from Arndt (2003), he had made a couple dozen guitars total since the early 80’s. About 16 of these were made in 2000 as pre-production “demo” guitars for the Magnum Guitars line. The Magnum Guitars website went offline years ago. As far as I know he has not made any more guitars. Of the 16 guitars, some had a Strat-shaped body, some a Les Paul shaped body, and at least one Telecaster shaped body. Finishes included various powder coated colors, chrome plating and gold plating. These guitars were made entirely by Arndt on CNC equipment, including the radius fingerboard and fret slots, which according to him were machined with a tolerance of 0.0005” (five ten-thousandths). ....."

7 day listing, current bid $10, w/reserve.
