This is a veritable Shangri-La of ugly guitars:

...although a few of them are awesome and blur the line into http://www.fetishguitars.com territory...nobody is going to convince me that those old Wandrès are ugly...

wow - I didn't know Lemmy'd rocked one like that - a shame he didn't have one made to look like the demon locomotive from the cover of Orgasmatron. :lol:

i hate those fucking things even more than the SRV Strats, but in general i don't get the appeal. i mean, i put together my sunburst Strat to emulate Richard Thompson, but i didn't go over it and try to reproduce every scratch. i love him, but i'm not trying to be him. it would be a lot cheaper for these fanbois to just buy a t-shirt.

The new JHS white series are the ugliest I've seen in a while... It's a marketing suicide. Sorry I can't even post a pic...

I can’t decide whether I think this is actually ugly or just...unique?

After searching for it, there are a number of others on Reverb too. I would assume they all sound like playing Russian folk songs thru an old gas can.

i want to hear a Tone Shootout featuring this thing, a plastic Mickey Mouse guitar from my childhood, and a Gretsch Travelling Wilburys model.
