AH body shape is awful. But the switches on the one on the right are crazy/cool, remind me of combo organ switches or something.

I think that has to be the worst body shape i have ever seen. At least the awful BC Rich stuff has intention in design. Where do you dig this stuff up from Westy? :lol:

These things look so ugly that I like them. That's how I've always felt about Vox guitars, they're so ugly that it makes them cool!
