P-square are considered Nigeria’s richest twins in entertainment. And many fans have always assumed that the twins could afford the best things in life given how much they are both worth.

However, after a brief research, it was gathered that a guitar Peter Okoye uses for his rehearsals costs around N72,000 ($438,000). Thus, fans could actually afford such guitar used by the famous Psquare and if used right, can get the same sound the twins bang the continent with!

This guitar is called an Acrylic 5 String Bass Guitar, or transparent guitar, or “a see-through”. It is allegedly manufactured by a Chinese company called Alibaba. It’s a jazz bass guitar used my musicians to help enhance their sound

However, according to some music portals, the acrylic guitar is one of the worse guitars any artistes can ever own. Here are three reasons for this:

  • Acrylic does absolutely nothing for tone or sustain no matter what anyone says.

  • The body is unbelievably heavy. 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.


In a message posted together with the photo of the guitar, Peter Okoye said he is using the guitar for rehearsals ahead of their “Double Trouble” tour coming up in a “country or city near you.
