PRODUCT DETAILS
The Apollocaster
Parts of this guitar have spent time on the Moon!
Yes, you read right! The ApolloCaster was built by NASA scientists utilizing parts from Apollo Spacecrafts…
This is one unique guitar with an amazing history. As well as being the Chief Mechanical Engineer working on the construction of the Apollo 11 lunar Excursion Module, Ray Davenport Jnr also played rhythm guitar in the NASA house band, One Small Step. Davenport Jnr built the Apollocaster guitar during breaks between shifts but was fired in 1972 after it was discovered he had been stealing vital metal parts in the construction of the Apollocaster guitar.
