Larsongs Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) Looks like a Fender Offset… I’m sorry but that is one Fugly Headstock.. Edited August 16, 2022 by Larsongs 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdgm Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 It's like the MIII (80s shred thingy) and I never liked that headstock either. I'm sure it plays well and sounds good - Gibsons usually do - but it will be a high price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dub-T-123 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I saw another video about these instagram “leaks” where the guy was speculating about some LP customs with super 400 inlays. Yesterday I saw those LP customs at Music Zoo A lot of these unique builds might be Made 2 measure orders and not part of an actual production run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that you are allowed to pick some stuff like pickup configuration and neck shape, colour etc.. I dont think they will make you any shape you want.. Not worth re-tooling for that.

But it has to be otherwise it would clash with the aesthetic of the rest of the guitar. Whitefang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Pepper Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) Gotta make cool shape for the younger kids who can't afford them, then they go buy Fenders instead. Edited August 16, 2022 by Sgt. Pepper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsongs Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) I have a few Fenders & they’re great Guitars.. They do things all my Gibsons & Epiphone’s don’t. And Vice versa.. Best of both Worlds.. Among them are an American Vintage 65 Jazmaster & an American Vintage 65 Jaguar… They are fantastic Guitars & Works of Art.. Then there’s my Fender USA Strat & Tele’s… All are great Guitars! I like them as much as my Gibson’s & Epiphone’s! But, I hear you.. Fender makes Gibson looking Guitars too…. Go figure!

merciful-evans Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Looks like a lot of other guitars. Its a bit of dull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NighthawkChris Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 If it looks like the guitar in the OP, then I'll pass. I think it is ugly. But that's my opinion... Who really cares what that is haha! How much I wonder for a block of wood tooled in a oblong guitar body shape with nothing special about its finish, a recycled Explorer neck only with dot inlays, and some other bridge type with what looks like a trem going to cost? Do you get a HS case with it I wonder? I like Gibson guitars, but I never buy new. But today, even buying used is a PITA. I haven't had the GAS bug in quite a while... I like the new LP Specials, just don't see wanting to spend $1800 plus tax for one. People do apparently... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
