I wanted to do one of those pretty bad until I realized the process was way too involved for me AND the submissions aren't public.
I was totally going to do a pizza butthole coronet, though.

Yeah, same here. The idea was for me to mock-up my dream Les Paul and then put a horrible golden Floyd Rose on it
(I like Floyds, just not on LPs) but then it dodn't turn out looking quite as shit as I would have hoped.
