Kelly Osbourne has a synth tattoo (What about you?)

Trent writes: "Kelly Osbourne has an awesome new tattoo of a sweet (fictional?) synth with X-Y, 2 wheel mods, 5-band EQ, 3-octave keyboard, and...a spectrograph??? Can't decide if this makes me want to puke or give her a high-five." Leaving aside the obvious questions ("What the hell?" and "What kind of fool would put mod wheels way over on the right hand side?") I started looking for other people with music-gear tattoos.

Obviously there are plenty of Fender and Gibson guitars, but no synths at all. Nick from the Volt Per Octaves has a Moog logo tattoo, but I can't find any more. Anyone else?

A friend of mine has a mirror image Minimoog on his forearm. A lefty Minimoog I guess, but it wasn't on purpose.

Btw, the only synth I know of that the Osbournes have is an Arp 2600.
I repaired it for him a few years back.
Then again, money has been pretty good lately for the O's. Maybe they have more now. :)

Every San Francisco area bassist seems to have tattoo sleeves. For quote a while, I'd been pondering what I would get when I return to the area to live. This answers it for at least one arm! Knobs galore!!

I've heard that a guy in the listening has a moog tattoo.

The subject is cool, but it looks like a drunken prison tattoo.

The mod wheels were probably drawn on the left in the original image, but got reversed when it was transferred to the skin. I'm surprised it wasn't noticed before inking though...

if image was reversed, wouldn't the keyboard would be F-E, instead of what looks like C-B?

Does a Moog ladder filter tattoo count? (It's not mine...)
