NAFF!

[quote name='redzombie' post='722353' date='Jan 23 2010, 05:34 PM']Here's a monstrosity I came across earlier.

Not only a horrible looking guitar used by a crap band, but it advertises a poor excuse for beer too! [/quote]

That's the most gut-renchingly horrific thing that's been posted on this thread. What a f***ing sellout.

Ha ha... I know the owner of that bass (it's a Carl Thompson)... and here he is... (yes, he is American)

Aint he just? (Yeah, yeah I know we're all sell out to some degree )

Pretty much goes against a lot of the stuff he, Kurt and Krist would declare themselves to be against back in the day.

If Kurt were still around, I wonder if he'd have turned into such a hypocritical tosser too.

For me, whatever the phrase "bad taste" might encapsulate, a guitar's not "naff" until it's got LEDs in the fingerboard.

Side or front?

Grohl seems to have specialised in the cross-polination marketing of his musical career post-Cobain. One minute they dont do interviews cos it's 'rock-star', next minute he's helping host MTV award shows. tsk.

/thread derail!

If I recall correctly from the Talkbass thread where this appeared - this monstrosity was actually refinished to match the colours of the helicopter in Magnum PI...

What?!? Why?!? Who knows....

Probably. In a world where Iggy sells insurance and Johnny Rotten flogs butter, anything is possible.

I like how the small inset one near the top on the right is actually a guitar hero controller

Sorry these are mostly Guit@rz and mostly art rather than functional instruments but pretty cool none the less. IMHO.

So do I!

Competition stripes are the very thing.

I like the 70s porn colours too. Much more interesting than a bit of ronsealed timber.
