It looks like the awesomeness of that guitar could not be contained by the paint job, and it's trying to get out.

Probably a nice guitar, but some people have no design sense at all.

Comparable to a Les Paul? Image

That acoustic got its knob from a kitchen timer, methinks.

Twangle bangle, definitely, but NOT JJ.

+1 on the Combo bass!
That's a cool concept, & I'm not really that into vintage stuff.
Plus five minus five!
