Ugly Guitar Thread

Yuck that's just wrong......

Hopefully it was a one-off prototype.

I'm going to post this here as most will say its ugly. its for sale on Ebay atm, if I had 2.5 K it would be mine! I'll be looking for a cheaper one in April when I'm in Japan. Its a Firstman Liverpool from the early 70's

Yes! THat's yummy....

Looks like something used for chopping off peoples heads. Definitely medieval.

Reminds me of Megatrons axe/sword from the latest Transformers movie!

@ Dedman That guitar isn't ugly per se, it actually has a kind of coolness about it, sort of like Paul McCartney's Hofner Violin Bass, but then maybe I'm too much of a traditionalist.

'70s? It looks like the mid 60's Italian guitars than used to turn up in the "Off The Wall" column in Guitar Player magazines.

Single cut SG. Who the hell though that would be a good idea?

Given how whippy SG necks are, having a couple of inches of extra support probably seemed like a good idea at the time. And it probably still had better upper fret access than a Les Paul. I think it's the top half of the scratch plate that ruins it as it doesn't run with the body curve like the bottom half does.

Nope, I think it's just Ugly Simon.
