With the present status of Peter Okoye, anyone would expect that he'd have upgraded his taste, just like most of his colleagues do. But no, the married father of two decided to parade a cheap transparent guitar, one not advised for even an upcoming, and we are wondering why?
 
Peter shared a photo of him carrying a transparent guitar on his Instagram and at first, we were thrilled to see the fine instrument he uses for rehearsals. 
 
But from investigation, the guitar is called an Acrylic 5 String Bass Guitar nicknamed transparent guitar or "a see-through", manufactured in Chinese by a company called Alibaba.  
 
Interestingly, the guitar costs just N72, 000($433k)! 
 
Menga.net says the acrylic guitar is one of the worst guitars any artistes can own. There reasons are because:
·  Acrylic does absolutely nothing for tone or sustain no matter what anyone says.
·  The body is unbelievably heavy. Even heavier than a 1970s Les Paul. It's absolutely required to wear a well-padded guitar strap if you dare play this thing standing up.
·  No guitar player has ever said that they prefer an acrylic body. That has never happened in the history of electric guitars, and never will.
The site then advised that no one should buy an acrylic-bodied guitar! 
So what in the world was Peter doing posing with it?
