Love the guitar. Not as crazy about the custom paint job, but I'd take it if someone offered it to me.
 
Not my taste on the paint. Looks like someone pulled it off the wall of the local Cafe Ole' or something. Needs a hat with a wide brim and little fuzzy balls hanging off of it to go with it.
 
I've seen a couple of them at Cream City Music. They're OK - I guess. But then again, I never really got into the who hotrod pinstriping thing.
