I often I think it's bizarre that rock guitar players, the one time "rebels", are now unexperimental antique collectors who only accept four models of guitar and complain if something is 1/16th of an inch different than it was in 1959 ...but then I look at stuff like this and I kind of get it. Being a rebel and making your own way is good, but being boring might be better than guitars shaped like butts.

its prickly brother...

dude gets extra points for violating touring musicians rule #74 'you can't wear your own band's tshirt'

This song, for me, exemplifies pretty much all the good things of 70s pop: strong vocals and harmonies, great individual solo abilities from several musicians, the use of varying rhythmic features (triplets, etc) and a killer lyric hook. Wish I could do it justice- if I could, it would be front and center in my repertoire. However...

I just… I mean… maybe if… ugh.
It’s so close. So much of it is good. But the parts that aren’t really ruin it. Which for me is mostly the headstock, and the weird indentations on the back of the neck. I mean, I get what it’s supposed to do, but why?

I actually really like the body shape. A lot.

The inlays look weird in the absence of any resemblance to a Les Paul.

Needs to be relic
