It's probably still bloodstained from when the guitar teacher (who he completely ignored on Play it again), wacked him round the head with a Fender Telecaster.

That's disgraceful. You should never treat a Fender Telecaster that way!

There's a Madonna song that sounds like this:

"Bill Oddie, Bill Oddie, run your hands all over my body."

Easy Frederick. in fairness to Ms Mikeledes (teacher and phonomenal player) it was probably a £40 Alba copy bought from a well known auction site where people from all over the world bid on items of dubious quality. Wink

I had an Alba copy of a Les Paul a while back. Copy yes but it was still a great guitar with a superb "action".
Our Lead guitarist had a Les Paul Gold Top and he liked to use my Alba on occasion! Wink

I know someone who got an Alba Tele Santafe he gave £26.50 plus £16.50 shipping from Germany for it, a silver one, maple neck and a blank headstock (wink wink nudge nudge) and a nice action right out the box. He tore it apart, had it sprayed dodge viper red, put a set of Ernie slinky 9's on it and it's one bad hot rod now.. Maximum Tele twang for change from 60 beer vouchers but still cheap enough to wack a knob like Oddie upside the head with and not damage it. He's fantastic on the birdwatching job but when he was on Play it again on beeb 2 earlier in the year, he deserved a slap ! Wink

This is why they need Kate Humble alongside Bill Oddie, because the BBC wouldn't allow him to present on his own. God the man is odd Laughing

That's like declaring that the Pope is Catholic! What do you expect - he was one of The Goodies for heaven's sake! Wink

He also suffers from clinical depression which is why he can be as you say 'odd'
