I think the Teisco looks pretty cool in a weird, Vox Phantom-esque kind of way.

:lol: Yeah, I actually dig that Teisco too! :!!!:

(That's why there's a question mark after "gone bad" part of the OP. It's definitely a hack job though.)

:omg: Look what just got listed:

That acoustic is super endearing to me for some reason. I want it to be my scrunched up lil buddy. I wouldn't even use those upper frets lol.

Yeah, I'm sure that Gibson's still a sweet guitar. It just looks a little fugly right now.

Then, of course, there was this one:

That gibson acoustic reminds of picasso for some reason.

Also the teisco is too adorable. I want it.

Although all my mods are hack jobs so I could post literally my entire life in this thread.

OK, apparently, I need to look for some "better" hack jobs. :eek: Off to look for some more cut up Strats. :cool:

:idk: just go on eBay and search damaged guitar or guitar project.... :picard:

I'll say I am not a fan of the Gibson because it looks like it could have been done better... Unless the guitar was really crunched and that was the only way to make it work without adding wood.... :idk:
