ughhhh

Are those pickguards aged? Who thought that was a good idea? It just looks dirty.

you're right. I just noticed that, it looks as if someone took a piss on it...

just bought one today- absolutely incredible for a $200 guitar, the stock pickups sound awesome and the tuners seems really nice.




Not too crazy about the (wood!) pickgaurd though...looks like someone sharted on it or something. I'll prolly take it off and repaint it whenever I find the time.

A bunch of dealers rejected the first batch because of the aging issue - I'm sure it could be cleaned up.

They're great guitars, though - if I didn't already have 2 Danos and 3 guitars with lipsticks I'd totally get one.

+1. These look pretty sweet for only 250$, but I need a semi-hollow or a (gasp) Les Paul next...

they pretty much are semi hollow, they just don't have 'f' holes.

Yep. The sustain on this thing is crazy, almost feels like an acoustic.

Sounds interesting. I may have to reconsider getting one of these down the road.

I think I like the blue onel although the aged pickguard is awful. It being wooden though, I suppose you could do what you wanted with it.
