Muzz Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 It's apparently from the METAL world, soooooo... I kinda like it: if you're gonna go over the top, go over the top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyctes Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Charge extra for lots of extra work that's hard to see even in the photo... from 20 feet away it'll just be an ugly red splodge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I was going to defend this guitar, saying for the right band and the right image...then I saw your post and had another look, and yes, although the idea might be fun in the right setting but the build (for a maker like ESP, and for the price) is hugely disappointing. The attempt to finish the tail as an inlay, to my eyes, is a complete failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painy Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 That's rather a lot of money for something that looks like it was moulded out of old Mini Babybel wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_c2 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 I guess fitting a neck pickup was not possible due to it blocking the guitar's breasts. If they'd made her lean back a bit for them to flop under her armpits, or squish them together with a wonderbra, there would have been space, thus increasing the guitar's versatility and tone?

Bassassin Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I remember seeing one of these at a music show in Birmingham probably 12 years ago. Presumably it's a big blob of moulded plastic rather than any actual craftsmanship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) I sold these in about 2004...they were on the whole totally useless and sound like crap too. The last one we had we raffled off because we couldn't sell it. Edited July 24, 2016 by AndyTravis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
