Ou7shined Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I kinda like it. I admire it's blatant eccentricity. Would I play it live?... maybe in one of my bands, definitely not in the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingBollock Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) It says "1st & only made" yet if you look in the last picture there is another one, but in a different shade of puke, called the Waterskipper. Don't look too closely though, there are far worse one in there than the Raptor. Though, having said that, there are some that I quite like: The Goblin DT, the Scorpion and maybe the Medevil too. I did wonder if they were based on the shapes of US States. I would love to know how exactly they are designed. I have a feeling that it'll involve Apes and Etch-a-Sketches.

paul_5 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I think he might get in trouble over that "stingray". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 My first thought was the same as Bremen's, that it was like the Olimpic logo, and after thinking that the Stingray actually looked like a dragon with its jaws agape, I began to wonder if they are in fact a sophisticated Rorschach test. Well, I can't do the looking at clouds game at the moment because there's just the one and it goes from horizon to horizon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinball Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I like the way it has carrying handles built into the body, more things should be designed like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, anyone else know if any other guitar designs incorporated "handles" before then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
