Agree to disagree.

If given to me, a giant no thank you.
 
Looks more like New Mexico tru.

It’s kinda cool for the right situation I reckon. And if they intended that depiction of St. Mary or Guadalupe or whoever it is on the back to be truly terrifying - mission accomplished!

The control plate kills it for me. I love the the rest, but it’s a single pickup Tele, it’s going to rock.
 
If they did the design but made it look like a new guitar with a deep glossy finish I would really like it. As is it like it was found dumpster diving.

Only if it comes with a free Daisy Red Ryder BB gun with a matching buttstock. No, make that two of those.

The strings at the base of the neck appear to be a half inch above the body. That just fuckin' pisses me off.
