Flight959 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Sure is ugly... Not my thing... Flight959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlantic Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Perhaps it's worth $5G based on fact it's ugliest guitar ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_HEWC Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 the description says trapeze, but all I see are dots... If it wasn't for the headstock I'd might like it... only one flaw... no p90's :- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky4 Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 I think the original Explorer had a headstock similar to this. Dean guitars copied it, and made an E'lite which was Les Paul and Explorer combined. As far as the Gibson, if the controls were more Les Paulish, it wouldn't be too bad.

pohatu771 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I like the finish, and I can even accept the headstock... But the controls are a little weird for me. The five-way (I assume) switch is incredibly helpful for a three-pickup guitar, but those controls are weird. It reminds me a little bit of Paul Bigsby's guitars... mostly because of the switch and colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
