It gets to me when manufacturers put gay graphics on guitars, i mean, with BC Rich its understandable but Squier?

haha, i saw that a few weeks ago...

i dunno what's more laughable, the price or the "upgrades". jazzmaster bridge? good one...

and the showmaster- it's a bit presumptuous of the guy to think i'd bid on his smelly guitar:
HAPPY BIDDING STU
er.. no ta!

Lol @ Mustang... but then, its that German seller again. Everything he sells is either butchered or has some distastefull hippy artwork on it. Srsly, where does he get his stock from? Or does he do it himself in some hope it will add mojo?

I actually like that Showmaster, its a cooler colour than my Snot Green/Silver Stagemaster but them graphics make me want to self harm. :lol:

EXCELLANT CONDITION
I watched a video on airbrush flames. I just don't think they will ever work on guitars. And hell, flames are tired.

i have thought that about that german seller as well.
its like he thinks that any sort of "mod" will increase the value of the guitar.

That German seller cracks me up.

I wonder if he's ever actually sold any of his overpriced butchered guitars? (I'm too lazy to look at his feedback).

I think the guy probably does too much acid. Not just when he's "improving" his guitars, but also when he posts his ebay auctions. The guy must have spend big bucks on listings fees to perpetually relist these guitars that he will never sell.
