i dig the hellcat inlay
i just loathe tim armstrong...
and i wish someone would remind him that he isn't british, and the accent he attempts to use makes him sounds a bit "touched"
you know like...
however. this guitar looks killer
i wonder if they have them anywhere up here yet..
i always just figured that he had a speech impediment.
everyone sings differently.
hell, when the dude from Def Lepord sings hes like ROCK IT YEYEAHHH and you can understand him fine. but then when he is speaking i cant understand a fucking word coming out of his mouth.
if everyone sang the same way this world would be fucking boring.

I like the scratchplate, although I think it would look a lot better if the edges weren't so rounded, so that it would look even more like a jazzy ztyle of a thing.
