Took me a minute to find anythig on this anywhere. Ash body, racing stripe, p-90 dove pickups?
Thoughts?

Who is this for? Blues Lawyers I guess. It's quite ugly though.

P90s? OK.
No pickguard? OK, I guess.
Hardtail. Um...
No phasing option! Why?!?
Natural finish WITH COMPETITION STRIPE! What?1? No!

Wouldn't buy it for $199.

Yuck...who thought this was a good idea for a production run? Looks like a kisekae disaster.

I kind of dig it, except that it lists for 1499 â‚¬ at Woodbrass, more expensive than the first one in the American Facepalm series.

Curious if it's slab or has the contours.

Why do they continue to rape Mustangs?

It's like a home build project that someone proudly posts in the forums, everyone says "oh yeah, nice one, great" and never, ever looks at the thread again.

I'm generally a fan of stripped down models.

Can't say as I like this though, it's like that horrible hardtail P90 Jaguar, that no one seems to like.

Just design a new model FFS.
What was the last thing Fender did, the Toronado? Even the Marauder was a new take on an old design.

Looks like a slab of shortbread.
