It's an interesting design but the different natural woods are not to my personal taste. Late era Lou Reed would've rubbed his dick all over it though.

This.

Although I appreciate the craftsmanship in the guitars, the design is all over the place. The website looks like it was designed by a 10 year old. In 1998.

The guitars are really not my thing.

This made me laugh though:

Reminds me of Ed Roman. That's not a good thing.

I could look past the 1990s web designing, if only I liked the look of the guitars themselves. Which sadly I don't.

That's not to say they don't sound great or aren't built well, but they just look horrid. The grain of the individual pieces of wood that's used is interesting and each piece on its own would probably look really nice, but the way that the different flames and ripples are thrown together just looks bloody awful. Very peculiar shapes, too - they're in the uncanny valley between the "fluid" shapes of modern designs and the intricate scrollwork of classical instruments. Again: some interesting ideas and nice workmanship, but pretty unpleasant in combination.

Dude obviously knows what he's doing, but he's got no sense of aesthetics and style whatsoever. Worst headstock and body I've seen in years plus he seems to insist on gold hardware.
I'm guessing he doesn't sell very many of these.

Ha ha, my thought was that these were almost ugly enough for John Entwistle.
