Members sylvesterlowery Posted October 9, 2007 Members Share Posted October 9, 2007 I see black metal guitarists snatching these up by the ton. And many Venom tribute bands will be born. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SlayerofShadows Posted October 9, 2007 Members Share Posted October 9, 2007 I'm a little put off by the inlays, but, to be honest, I'd hit it. Looks pretty sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sk8centilli Posted October 9, 2007 Members Share Posted October 9, 2007 Christians core belief is that Christ died on the cross for everyone's sin and that only through faith in him will you be granted justification, as a gift of God's grace, so that you may stand righteous before the glory of God. That said, I'm pretty sure that Christianity does not specify whether appreciating, liking or owning a guitar that has upsidedown crosses on it is condemning. However most Christians, myself included, would probably choose not to own one out of respect. Peace be with you all and may this post/thread rest in peace.

Members pink freud Posted October 9, 2007 Members Share Posted October 9, 2007 assuming thats how its always been? it hasn't. somewhere it morphed from not caring about image to image being one of the main focuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wedgehed II Posted October 9, 2007 Members Share Posted October 9, 2007 The reason people wear a cross is because of who was executed on it and why. Its an incredible testimony to see that the device of His torture and death was taken over by the enormity of His actions. It is no longer a symbol of a repressive regime, but now a symbol of eternal Hope. That just demonstrates His power and Love. Well said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Dissy Posted October 9, 2007 Members Share Posted October 9, 2007 That's actually really sexy. The crosses don't bother me personally one way or another, but I admit that I'd be embarrassed to play it in public. If I played more black metal, I'd be even more embarrassed to play it, as then you totally look like one of those mallcore kids who thinks enough corpsepaint and inverted crosses makes up for a total lack of originality. Bah, if it was 300 less, I'd get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it just seemed to me that your response was a bit of an over reaction. The last line of what the dude said seemed a bit goofy, but all in all it didn't seem like he was "preaching", but just stating something. Also, my response wasn't a personal attack on you.

Members chronicinsomnia Posted October 9, 2007 Members Share Posted October 9, 2007 Love the look of the guitar itself. Wouldn't buy it because of the inlays. It is a bit cheesey. I would prefer block inlays or dots over inverted crosses. When I first saw the guitar I thought it would be a great buy for my son. He has been saving his money for a "V" style guitar. I hope Rondo will sell the heck out of these quickly then come back with more traditional inlays on the next go around. I'll bite on round two if they make that single change.
