haha yeah I was chatting to Pest and told him Ugly thread was 48 pages at the time and he asked how big the Beautiful thread was and I said half 24 pages
It must mean there are too many ugly axes around.
I'm surprised DB hasn't posted Mosrites and Icemans in this thread ?
Or eleven string basses......Quote:

Godwin Guitorgan enough switches and knobs for you now?

Imagine the rats nest of wires under that pickguard...
yeah that would be a nightmare to lift the pickguard with 4000 wires attached, and imagine troubleshooting a bad connection !
50 pages wow thats a PBG record

@ Pabs have to agree Pabs

Not obvious in that pic are the segmented frets, 6 individually wired segments on each fret referenced to the associated string and if you are using the organ function and bend a string you get amazing discordance it really is sh1t on a stick
Hey DK haven't seen you on here for a while mate !
Think I remember you posted the Godwin, so the lesson is don't go out of your way to play one by the sounds.
Love the description last 5 words you posted hahah

Got some great pics in the Victorian high country, the views, roads and villages are sublime, I'll post a pic or two and a vid in the extramural forum from my mates car of the run up Mt Hotham ( the sign said end 60 zone so guess what happened :D )
I reckon the wiring and soldering would be pretty simple.
A smart man would have simply used a PCB. :)
Aw yes weld that accelerator to the floor!Quote:

Music Man St Vincent. I've got a sneaking suspicion it was modelled after Annie's cheek bones.
Hey Fretty that body shape is ugly, neck and headstock don't look too bad. Looks like someone messed with the body shape in a photo editor.
Can't believe DB hasn't put a Mosrite in this thread - or has he ? hahah
51 pages of thread, the Mos might be in there somewhere if you could be bothered looking for one? If not it should be.Quote:

interesting story Waz, we don't share the same christian name (I'm Warren).
I've followed v8 supercars for most of my life and agree the current cars are all built in the team factories from the floor up.
A really good series going back to the early roots of the sport is

I'm about halfway through season 2 is fairly recent.
We better leave the talk to another thread anyway, keep this one for ugly guitars hahah
I love the modern!
If you want ugly, try the Aust brand Fican
