UGLIEST GEAR

I always think of Kraftwerk when I see this (even though they have nothing to do with it).

[Iommic Pope]

As impractical as that is, its pretty fucking rad.

As far as I'm concerned that is very close to ideal. Whose is it?

This $2,600 schecter showed up in my junk mail folder as "Irresistible Guitar of the Week" Looks like a shredtastic marble cake.

I'm guessing someone who has at the very least made Robert Fripp very uncomfortable in an alley behind the stage door at some point.

If I'm not misremembering the details, it was on eBay circa 2002 from a Florida seller. I think the final bid was about $1200. Factor in that it was 2002 and your favorite companies weren't even daydreams yet. None of the pedals rehoused into that aircraft aluminum were considered rare at the time (EHX, Vox, Colorsound, Dan Armstrong). It was the best of what was available, when it was assembled (1980s - early 90s). Vintage prices for 1970s pedals were 1/3rd or less of what they are now at the time. Since that auction, I've never seen it resurface. I think it had wiring issues and needed to be serviced, before it could be used again. It might still be sitting in a garage somewhere, waiting to be repaired.

Or overgrown with kudzu in the Maryland woods like the pfunk mothership.

If I was going to start an ugly-beautiful thread (things so distasteful they're kind of beautiful), then this would go in there. It's a fine line, though, and true U-B stuff is hard to find.

Yeah that's a pretty good way to fuck up the Gibson guitar that's almost as simple as a telecaster.

For that kind of loot it should come with Robotuners.

That's a nice find of the U-B persuasion. With a different color combination and tulips, instead of sperm, that could be a really psychedelic finish.

I wonder how long it will take for this Jizzblaster to find its soulmate.
