It doesn't look like anything else because it's an original design that PB experimented with in their early days. Something about it looked familiar. I remember them from when I became a member... about half way down this thread is a post from Adam about the PBG-1 and PBG-2

I went back into the Exhibition Centre forum and found a couple of them:

PBG-2

PBG-1

From the pics it looks like the kit you guys found may actually be a PBG-1...which would make it *the* original, original Pit Bull design. It looks like the PB2 might have come with a locking trem. I really like the use of the Marshall knobs with the gold hardware.

I love guitars like this. I really like the curvy design (particularly if you add an arm and a belly cut. And it doesn't quite look like anything else. Great alternative to a PRS or G1B50N, complete with the shorter scale. It should have been a best seller.

Maybe this model should be resurrected as a short scale single cut!

1+ Epiphone has the Wilshire/Crestwood/Coronet/DC-Pro that are LP and SG clones electronically, but with a different shape. Why should they have all the fun?
