This article needs help. It needs:

• content
• structure
• some idea of where it's going

Right now it looks more like a jumble of random facts than like anything really informative. Respectfully, SamBlob 14:54, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hank Hill

I'm removing the Hank Hill reference for now. He's definitely not the only cartoon guitarist to play a "real" guitar (I'm pretty sure the guys in Big Mountain Fudgecake (also from King of the Hill) play Dean guitars, and Dethklok (Metalocalypse) uses Gibsons. The bit at the end kind of the paragraph kind of ruins the reference anyway, since it's made clear that the show only *says* he's playing a "real" guitar, but it's incorrect as drawn (assuming it's not some kind of custom guitar). It's pretty much saying "Hank Hill sorta-kinda plays a Guild," and is that really notable? You tell me. intooblv (talk) 01:53, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Edit: Here's the bit I removed, in all it's glory, in case someone wants to fix it up:

"Hank Hill of King of the Hill is perhaps the only cartoon guitarist to actually have a real model instead of a generic-looking guitar. He owns a 1963 Guild solid top acoustic nicknamed "Betsy". It is one of his most cherished possessions. However, the guitar he plays, as drawn, could not have existed from that era, as Flattops did not come with cutaways as regular features until some time in the 1970s, and have never incorporated tailpiece bridges." intooblv (talk) 01:56, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
