Actually angus is a breed of cow. One of the many unimportant facts you pick up growing up in a rural community

I have the biggest issue with headstocks, man. I dunno why. If it looks weird I won't like the guitar.

maybe it's because when you play the guitar you see the headstock a disproportionate amount of the time compared to the body. or because its position gives it a disproportionate amount of visual impact on the design, and a lot of guitar designers don't seem to consider that. it's as though they spend a week on the body and ten minutes on the headstock. Agile guitars are the Ur-example of this...imagine how many more guitars they'd be able to sell if they'd only change the logo typeface and that hideous developmentally disabled fleur-de-lis trim on the Hagstrom's Big Boy headstock.

Yeah the guitar has to look and feel good. If it doesn't, I will find something else that looks and feels good. No problem, tons of guitars out there for me :yay:

Not a fan of the headstock either. Looks like a fat Parker headstock.
Also, I don't dig the aged metal look on the bridge and controls.
