Blofeld Guitar Harmonics

Blofeld Guitar Harmonics by DonPetersen
"I sampled harmonics from my Framus Diablo Custom (the Duncan JB pickup in the bridge is perfect for that), loaded them with SPECTRE into the Blofeld. What you hear is one Osc, no filters. All I do is tweak the Amp Envelope."

"Hey guys, I am selling a custom Nigerian Vespucci synthesizer that was built in nigeria by Dr. Philip Emeagwali. I bought it last year from a collector in NYC. It has worked great ever since and everything is functional. It has the most unique sound I have ever heard. If you are interested you are welcome to try it before you buy."

Anyone know more about this one? If anyone checks it out, post back.
