    No, I don’t think that is the joke.

      genuinely, what else could it be? short neck joke? does he even have a short neck? nirvana guitar joke would be 2 frets bigger in the 90s (and 2 strings missing probably)

        I seriously don’t get how people are misinterpreting this as a joke about his dick size. I’ve never even heard of guitar being used as a metaphor for the penis.

          i’ve seen a Prince performance or two that seem to imply it

          It looks like a small penis. And if you don’t know how to play guitar there would be no way to intuit any further context.

        I think people are reading this as a small penis joke. That’s what I assumed before I saw the fret explanation.

          thats kinda ok, even if guitar parts are called body/neck/head, not popular knowledge, but comrade from db provided that explanation (little bit high horsey, but still) and got ridiculed for it (!) (meow-hug to our glass brethren)

            In hindsight yeah, might have been a niche meme to post. I’d still have preferred if people had asked for context if they weren’t sure of the meaning rather than immediately jump to accusing me of being ignorant, but yeah. The situation has been resolved now and I’m going to move on.

      That is the joke. Most of Ed’s songs are simple and made on 3 chords

      The joke is in fact that he only uses three chords. That image has been going around on guitar meme pages for years now.
