A reissue best left unissued. I don't trust guitars with handles.

eh...pink one is pretty cool always kinda wanted one of these
only generally play guitars with dot markers so that's a deal breaker for me
as far as handles are concerned, I hope you aren't counting old teisco cutouts as handles because those guitars are trustworthy and treat everyone with kindness

Maybe not the ugliest......but certainly the lamest.

Continuing on a similar theme, it's not the ugliest (the technical execution is fine), but it's the concept. If someone bought you this, would you: laugh, cry, laugh until you cried, respectfully thank them and then paint over it? Seeing a band's logo on a guitar (played by someone outside the band) is as goofy to me as album cover art. I grew up on Nirvana, but if someone took to the stage with a naked baby swimming in a pool sprayed across their instrument, then I would immediately think I was about to see a uniquely amateurish and silly performance.

Anyone want to take a guess as to who built these?
These look like Korean knockoffs you'd find at Wal-Mart. I understand young girls might like the fluorescent pink or the light green, but these just look so cheap to me. I don't like the naked humbuckers without chrome coverings. I don't like the knobs either---it's too much plastic hardware. The bowling ball on the right isn't particularly appetizing either, but not one of the five looks like a top-shelf instrument.

That pink would look great on a one pickup Jr with the different pick guard though. The bowling ball is just awful.

Agreed that a Jr. would look great in that pink. I also really like the colors of the Jems, if they had a hardtail or at least a less bulky tremolo system.

I actually love Conan but yeah.....that guitar. It'd be fine without the graphic and the inlays.
