Never seen these, I suspect they're shit, anyone heard of them?

Production quality's obvsly poor, they left spikes sticking out round the strap knob on the upper bout.

Urgh, that fucking headstock. Those pickups. The square-ended fretboard that has just been glued on without being shaped to match the neck. Jesus, it's like a decent body with a load of shit slapped on it.

3-ply pickguard? Surprised.

I am a total convert to the hex bigass polepieces after using a DUNCAN PERFORMER DETONATOR. The neck is totally whack Ibanezesque trash, but the rest is probably salvageable.

AND IS IT JUST ME OR DOES THE SHAPE OF THE BODY LOOK BETTER

And its has a push-pull coilsplit. That's pretty rad for a cheap guitar.

The headstock looks PRS style only without the cut out at the top that makes it pointy.

I know that your avatar is not a badger, but it does remind me of the headstock pic. It is kind of a cool looking logo, but they don't seem make other models.

It's like they started with a decent if not derivative idea and then made increasingly poor choices.

Somehow I missed this because I thought they were only on Amazon, but they have a non-reverse model:

The body looks shrunken in comparison to a Jaguar or Jagmaster.

Ah the grumpy badger! Love it. The guitars are shit though.
