Some guitars are too funny not to post

[chipchappy]

missed opportunity putting the killswtich right where the x/swastika is on charlie's forehead

I bet lots of folks here might recognize that one but I can't believe it's a Dave Mustaine signature ESP

ngl the zaku gundam axe is done pretty well.

 

[Crungy]

I don't know shit about Gundam but it looks a lot better than the LoZ "guitar".

That ESP was a Dave sig? What the hell...

 

[Bodes]

I dunno... I kinda always wanted one of those Axxions....

The Luddite model, Pleb configuration, by Specimen guitars. For the low-low price of $4600

The Luddite PLEB is my new budget model. It sports all of the features you expect from a Specimen guitar but none of the adornment or tricky business I often get into. Of course it sports the fantastic non adjustable steel reinforcement all Specimen instruments enjoy.

And don't forget the Halfling Luddite...$6,800.



Also from Specimen guitars,and I know this will trigger some folks: "Stratocaster with slotted headstock", $3,800

"The slotted headstock with it’s enhanced break angle over the nut, imparts a superior vibrational embedment into the neck, with extra sustain and shimmering harmonics."

Also from Specimen, BOSCH promotional guitars:





And finally, also from Specimen guitars, the Royale Premiere. $38,000.

At least this one *looks* like it could be a $38,000 guitar, especially with the custom tailpiece, headstock adornment, and pickup bezel hardware.



The reason I'm posting it here, though...that damned headstock.

The headstock and body of this instrument are inspired by the sinewy horror of a praying mantis.

Both the D and G strings have banjo tuners that can be used for special drop-tuning effects.

Whatever he is smoking, I want some.

 

[Crungy]

You can get that or get a Krappy guitar for 2-3% the cost.

 

[NickS]

Yeah, but Krappy's don't come with "fantastic non adjustable steel reinforcement". Surely that's worth 97% more.....

 

[spudmunkey]

Yeah, but Krappy's don't come with "fantastic non adjustable steel reinforcement". Surely that's worth 97% more.....

The way percentages work, the Specimen would be 3,300-5,000% more

 

[NickS]

So which one is a better deal?

Praying mantis my ass, that’s a guitar with a built in anatomy lesson. Do they have a female version too?

"Hi, Mike? Hi, it's Bear from Bear's Guitar and Small Engine Repair. Yeah, I finished the guitar. I couldn't figure out how to get a new wire to the switch and didn't have a long drill bit, so I carved out a channel on the back. What did I use? No, not a Shaper Origin. No, not a plunge router....No, not a Dremmel, no. Snowblower. *awkward silence* I said I used a snowblower. Nah *looks back at guitar, chuckles nervously*, once I paint it up you 'll never be able to tell."

[MrWulf]

out of literally every pickup in the world why you shove a fucking EMG on it? Not that EMG is bad, I love them, but like, why?

 

[pahulkster]

Had to get that one down while abortions are still legal
