[Guitar Heel]

I can't defend this.

 

[reverend1]

Why?

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

Crackle has always been terrible.

Even in its 80s heyday, it was the absolute worst of the Metal-style graphics.

 

[Gary Blanchard]

As a rule, there is something about PRS guitars that just doesn't appeal to me. I must say,however, that this does nothing to change that.

[Modern Saint]

PRS guitars are no for me.

With the hideous paint it belongs here....

 

[bsman]

Damn. And I just threw away my last pair of yellow/pink parti-colored spandex leggings. :(

 

[yabba]

I used to have a single humbucker black and red crackle jackson soloist that was an awesome guitar, so I have a soft spot for crackle finishes, even though they are objectively horrible.

This is super gross, but there's something hilarious about this finish on a PRS that almost makes it kinda endearing. Like Wilford Brimley in a slayer shirt.

 

[jp_nyc]

As far as crackle guitars go it’s nice. But crackle is still horrible.

 

[Chicken Man]

I have come around on PRS. They've had a number of guitars lately that appealed deeply to me.

Obviously, not this one, tho. Oof.

 

[wok]

Crackle is one of those 80s things that should remain buried in the past

 

[Aahzz]

I love me some PRS, but have to pass here - now, if I was putting together a hair metal cover band....

 

[LeftyTom]

I wouldn't play that with YOUR pick.

 

[Peen Simmons]

Perfect for my Evil Space Lizard Shapeshifter theme band.

 

[Psychotronic]

Barf.

 

[DFB]

It looks like s lizard with an infection.

 

[frunobulax]

ick

 

[Tig]

Wilford Brimley in a slayer shirt.

Signature request.

nothing @baimun and a belt sander can't fix
