Woahwoahwoah... don't talk shit about hardluckkings guitars. they'll come in and start raising an awful fuss.
Oddly enough I actually like that guitar and if I hadn't recently scored a couple other guitars I might've purchased one this year. I like their non-reversed headstock firebird clone too.

I did consider looking at the real thing again (I did used to own a copy like Nick said) but I'd prefer something different and all-buckery. The Sonex 180 is pretty appealing too for some reason:

There's a refin on Ebay I've got my eye on..

Buckery you say?

Keep an eye out for an Ovation Preacher

Stereo outputs, glued AND bolted neck, similar goofy 70s lines and highest grade workmanship for probably around the same price you'd get a Sonex for.
