I think I talked to the luthier who made this. Does he live in NY? If I remember right he made it for his son and there is a piece that goes on top that plugs into those "outputs".

I have no memory though.

That is a Cole Clark Skate Lap, also called Harper Guitars.

A guy named Joe Delaronde also built one a few years ago, but I can't find any pics.

Alright, keep the puns rolling.
