Members Elias Graves Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 Much better than fireturd x and zoot soot. That's about as far as I'll go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dmc69 Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 Dafuq? I suppose if you're American and you've been looking at a Yammie 611HMF for that p'up combo, then this will suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fission Hole Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 The natural could be tolerable in that "yeah, it's ugly, but it works" way. Assuming it sounds and plays well to justify it when they clear these out next Black Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members artiem Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 Good gawd, that's horrible. It's a sacrilege to put the Gibson Custom headstock inlays on that thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GAS Man Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 Originally Posted by FlyingV Can't really decide, but I think I like it. Yeah - I think so too.It's like this mix of old school and aggression all coming together.Got a distorted image of the Custom Split Diamond H/S inlay, in a pointy thin-line design, with one of the most aggressive pickups they make, coupled to a maple body (which should make it even more edgie) but splittable for SC tones and a bluesy p'up in the neck, plus what looks like a fairly wide ranging wiggle stick.I mean, hopefully I'll avoid acquiring this guitar, but I'll be watching it. If it got down to the price that the Midtown Standards are currently being dispatched for, then it would be tempting. Maybe I'll just try to satiate myself with visiting one at a GC.I'd like to see some better pics of it. Right now I can't even decide which color I prefer. It does almost seem like it deserves the wild pinstripe motif, but the red might be more "safe". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members xrleroyx Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 I could rock the natural one. It reminds me of a Vox Virage. I don't know why the other colors make it look so god-awful but they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members deanmass Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 $1400? Seriously? If it had: 1 P90 Less fake BS finish, maybe a TV Yellow? Kind of a modernized Jr. It goes up in attractiveness by 1000%, but I was thinking this was a Melody Maker level guitar. Eff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
