Metallic hollowbody

I just read about this new (?) guitar innovation.

COSMO - Verso Musical instruments

Looks radical but it has a wooden neck! And a new generation monkey on a stick pickup!

A different kind of steel guitar

Oh, this is old idea! I tried to search word 'cosmo' from the titles of the threads but didn't find anything. Thanks!

Can't see this as a hollow body. Hollow suggests a mostly closed-off internal space that (in the case of a guitar) can act as an air pump. This is just a folded sheet of metal...

I have a too conservative taste for this sorta thing…..

This is one of those things that sure it works and frankly sound ok. But back to my original take on all this is that that, particular guitar would not in any way inspire me to pick up and play it. This not a post against this guitar or the person playing it at all. This is just me and my idea of intimacy of the guitar that draws me to play it. If works but just not for me.
