need to add to my list.......
the trem is on the pick-guard which seems like a terrible idea
the slice your hand off style selector switch is pretty dope and fresh

just realizing that the head stock should be shaped like new zealand

do we hate the green on this or the racing stripes?

Is it the white pickups?

hard for me to get too mad at what I think is a production level sig model

not as mad as I am at australia anyway

Can't speak for anyone else, but I hate racing stripes on a Strat-style body. I don't care for Strats or derivatives either, so that's 3 things I dislike immediately. It's just really dorky overall. The white pickups and the general aesthetic make this guitar the equivalent of the tuxedo tee in my eyes.

agreed. it wouldn't be nearly as egregious without the stripes.

It's not pretty but it's probably not Ugliest either,
I agree the stripes and location are a bad look all around.
As I recall from an old rig rundown the original version of this had taped on stripes by the owner, and I thought that looked cooler

[q]I built this guitar to feel somewhat like an SG, I really do like SGs, A lightweight no nonsense guitar.[/q]

Really? That's fascinating. Because it looks NOTHING LIKE AN SG!

It's a Fender offset with a reverse headstock and P90s. I like to picture this guy making a cheeseburger, but putting the tomato under the cheese and saying "I took my inspiration from pizza!".
