that last one isn't so bad, but whoever did that Jaguar should be brought before the World Court. the Duo Sonic thing is likely to have weird balance issues with the little body vs. 25.5" neck, though the Bigsby might help balance it out. i'd have placed the Bigsby farther from the bridge, however... the break angle from the tension roller to the bridge is much too steep.

That scratched up "Mustang" is on my local Craigslist. A small part of me wants to check it out but I don't think I'd trust a guy asking $875 for something in that condition.

This one's not only been hack'd by humans, but apparently by termites as well:

I left a cab at my in-laws and mentioned i was thinking of ripping the gross old tolex off and staining it. My father-in-law is bored and retired so he tackled the project. He called and told me that it wouldnt take a stain well but he had another idea. It was so crazy i told him sure go ahead. I will be picking it up soon and will have lots of pictures for your viewing pleasure. It's, uh, unique...

I'm not sure if this started as something else or was created from scratch, but someone clearly had a vision:

Of course, it's shaped like an axe, so pun intended.


Note also that the bridge would have to move completely off of the body for the intonation to be correct.
