Back in the 60 my dad played 8 string lap steel in many bands and he always answered to puzzled folks thus " its a cheese cutter" or "its my wifes Knitting machine". Then turn to the band and mutter " stupid ****** ( fill the last bit in yourself.... it varied from three letters to about seven.

"It's just like a guitar but you change chords with your feet and knees instead of your hands" That shuts 'em up....sometimes. I like cheese slicer or pasta machine. NEVER NEVER NEVER give them the right answer. You definitely won't get to go pee!!!

In some families it is called a " widow-maker".
Especially if the operator thereof spends more time and money with the machine than the soon-to-be widow.

I had a very drunk lady come up to the bandstand to tell me that my ZB D-10 looked like "a burial for two salmon".
