Ah yes, The Ultrazone Atrocity. I have a lot of time for Vai, but that instrument stretches the fandom.

Minarik guitars have to be some of the ugliest, over the top, most uncomfortable looking guitars out there.
Hey, don't get me wrong, I love me some good inlay, but these are definite examples of 'too much of a good thing'.

The BX 1 is a dreadful effort; trying to be headless on a bass with a headstock....
And Minarik... So much work for such awful results....

The worst thing about the BX1 is their bizarre solution to the double ball-end string issue.

It would save Minarik so much time if, he would just inlay wood.
Found this hideous effort while I was searching for movable pickup info.
The Wilkes "Answer" PUP system is pretty amazing, but this axe he made for a dude (Robbie Williams) with an unhealthy ego is just atrocious IMO.
