    OW!!!

    I need some brain bleach. Fast.

    Always had a love for oddball guitars. Even own a Squier '51. And still lust after an Ampeg "Heavy Stud".

    But that is ugly. There I said it.

    I'm sure it's mother loves it.

    Fenner should sue 'em just for bringing that ugly thing out in the first place.

    Gibson could almost sue 'em for nearly copying the Flying V headstock.

    Whew! That guitar is UG-LEEEEEEEEEE

    Any guitar company can sell any kind of Fender or Gibson knock off...as long as they don't "set up shop" in the States.

    If I made that guitar, I'd have to sue myself. I'd win, though, on grounds of insanity (and outrageous bad taste).

    Not true. Most countires we sign trade agreements with must adhere to patent and copyright law. That has been a big point with our trade agreement with China. My best friend is a patent lawyer in the music and entertainment business and he constantly goes to China to suit the bastards. He has started to prevail in the last few years as China begins to recognize the importance of our patent and copyright laws.

    It looks a bit like the new shape from Lentz with a different headstock. I'm not offended by the overall package. It would have been nice if the strings ran straight through the nut from the headstock though.

    The only way I could deal with a headstock that goony looking is if it had 6 tuners on each side. The double cut thing, I can live with.

    That's cool...

    . ..reminds me. A guy who I did some amp work for a few weeks back brought his Warmoth built Tele over and it had this headstock (done by him I s'pose) that was the curvy shape of a woman. Looked great.

    Then maybe we'll stop seeing "tele" knock-offs from:
    1. G&L
    2. ESP
    3. Tokai
    4. SX
    5. Dillion
    ...and a tens of other guitar brands I can't remember at the moment.
