pohatu771 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I, along with many others, am intrigued by this guitar. The only visual issue I have is the cream-coloured knob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkwire Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Now that IS ugly. A horrible thing to do to a perfectly good guitar (ref. John Hiatt). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Sentry Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Oh, I don't know. Maybe a chrome pickup, and some racing decals....it might make a good gimmick guitar to play at a monster truck rally, car show, or drag race... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neptune2000 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Agree on the knob, and the headstock color doesn't seem to match the rest. Other than that, if the olive(?) was a tad darker maybe for constrast, I think it might be better. I actually kinda like the racing stripe.

iansmitchell Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 But the back access plate, gibson pickup are attractive. Really, I'd like epi to switch the dot studio to a ES-333 studio. Maple/birch/maple(+/birch/maple if necessary) access plate, plain wood and non-inlayed headstock. Maybe even make it cheaper to boot. But an epi es-333 would be a great modding platform.

Dietrich Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Kind of reminds me of this (although I don't think this one is ugly at all)! http://namm.harmony-central.com/WNAMM05/Content/Epiphone/PR/Guitar-Wolf-G-310.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
byrds1965 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 It just needs one of these: There are photos of Crosby somewhere with an STP sticker on his Gent, so not too far off on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eor Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 the thing that bugs me the most about these is that just a few minor changes can make them beautiful. the unfinished headstock is what bugs me the most, but the plastic cover by the neck and the knob have to go, too. pickup ring and black logo are hideous as well.

Ricochet Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I like the minimalist approach of 1 Humbucker, 1 volume. Sorta reminds me of EVHs Frankenstein guitar. I'll survive the baby-poo colour, but the single racing stripe has got to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recycled Rocker Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I must be way different to you blokes, I like it but the colour is rather off putting. Cheers RR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
