Hmmm . . . perhaps he didn't know how to spell "bastardized"?

GGJ.,
I don't understand how the "repair" has been done.
Holes drilled in the top, and I believe along the side as well, but I can't figure out what the fasteners are.

GuildFS4612CE,cable ties?
Yes! I think you're correct.
Smartly done!
As an aside, may we call you 12CE for short?

A fine example of guitar repair, performed by . . . an electrician.

Also, what's going on with that bridge?
Sorta looks like steel strings over a classical bridge. Which might explain why the top separated from the tail/side. But what are the brightly-colored bits?

The colored bits look fluffy to me . . . maybe colored thread wrapped around the string ends?

I thought they were colored ball ends tilted sideways and threaded, but after another look I'll defer to your better eyesight. I'm just not sure.....
Sort of a cross of hot mess with el kabong, I think!
Wow, I wouldn't want to have been the guy on the business end of that kabonging!
