It has taken so much that should be sweet, and made a monstrosity out of it. :( I love the quilt, but it looks totally wrong on that body. That body itself looks totally wrong, it is the bastard son of an Iceman and a Mockingbird, mutated with an explorer arm. Aside from that, 4000 bucks? Sheesh.

I'm with Chihili. I love the blinginess of the purple quilt. Don't care for the shape of the guitar, though, and you all know my aversion to abalone inlays.

And the price makes me a little sick.

Yeah...$4000? Wowsers. I guess that's what thicker-than-quarter-inch solid quilty maple will get you.

Definitely not my thing.

I like nothing on it. Even the headstock is ugly.

I'm not even huge on the blue quilt, although its not horrible, just not my thing i guess.

All of the above. And it looks like a can opener.

While I really do not like it at all, I can see the attraction for a metal player or two. But no way is it worth the asking price...

Is that what Prince meant by "purple manatee" ?
