ow.

 

[DFB]

wow that is horrible.

 

[gtrjunior]

Oh.My.God
Wtf is that?

 

[LeftyTom]

Beyond fugly.

 

[Chad]

If it had a Bigsby, I'd rock it hard.

 

[jelloman]

That would have made one hell of a GPOTD...

 

[wok]

Holy shit

 

[Jbird]

It would be better with more green quilt maple

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

They were gonna do the whole thing in green quilt, but the top alone sent 6 good men to Jesus...and the plans had to be modified.

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

If it had a Bigsby, I'd rock it hard.

Agreed. Anything is better than that Super 400 atrocity.

 

[Honkridge]

I'm not so sure I'm into THAT lifestyle

Expensive firewood.

 

[Fumbles]

No! Not to a Super 400. Those are great sounding guitars. That is just fucking awful.:chow2:

Who the heck buys these things?

& if they really just feel like wasting money, why don't they just give it to me?

 

[Lerxst]

I always like it that when Gibson trips on a banana peel, they do it in epic fashion. No half-ass'n ugly.

I didn’t know fugly tree wood could be used in guitars.
