Nope. Third option.

LOATHE it. What incredible, unadulterated TRASH.

Doesn't even look like John. Looks closer to a mule muffin with pasta for hair.

I'd have to go with the latter, and even further.

Is that the head of Zeus on the body?

A head of latté is preferable to any attempt by this hack to represent human features of any kind, Stan...

Well, I knew it had to be the 'head' of something,

That is awful. What a waste of a Rickenbacker

Wow! O.k I didn't like it either-maybe I just should have posted the Brittany Spears on the Stradivarias instead-wouldn't have been such a personal attack.

The lefty Yellow Submarine bass is pretty fun.

Alan, you didn't notice the WangCaster?

I was beginning to miss old MVP, and now this guy has sprung, phoenix-like, from his ashes.

We'll have to feature a few of his, er, creations in my "Ugly" section.

I had an entirely different reaction-that made me howl! And, sometimes it's painfully evident that we live in a strange strange world.

Actually, it looks like a Michael Bolton tribute Rickenbacker.

It might sell faster if he re-painted the body in black and white checker and called it the "Jeff Spicoli Tribute" guitar.

Each time I see that face all I can think of is "duuude".
