Chuck Schuldiner, I'm not familar with Rick Derringer's music. What should I check out?
All the metal angular guitars (though I like V's and Explorers), and also any guitars with sharp edges or points (Minarik Guitars especially make a lot of these).

That SG/V thing that Gibson made. Hideous. :x
Les Pauls - hate the shape, hate the guitars....

WTF?
Were those guitars drawn in MS Paint!??!
They dont look real. At all.
But yeah, most BC riches - very silly, ESP Fs as well.
I also dont like Vs. King Vs are better, but still irritating.
I dont like les pauls or SGs, asthetically or for playing.
Or PRSs, again, in both categories.
And, of course, teles.
Actually, about the only shapes I do really like are strats, superstrats (fav) and explorers (2nd).

I really quite like the ESP F - Especially the F7 with the sanskrit inlay. Really cool guitar.
Does anyone remember those dreadful things that were on display next to Felines Stand at the 2007 LGS? I wish I could remember the name, they were so bad. Red Plasticy dragons and castles. I mean did the bloke behind those designs actually expect they would sell? Talk about out of touch! :xummm, perhaps my memory is at fault, but wasn't the PRS stand next to Feline at LGS 07? :)
on behalf of tele lovers everywhere.....
the ugliest shape I've ever seen is the one in Roo's sig!
And, sorry Wes, really don't like that guitar (although I wouldn't class it as monstrous).

Joking aside, did you mean those really weird flying-V derived things with arched tops & F-holes? I can't remember the name either but didn't see anyone paying any attention to them all day - I was haf tempted to go over there & ask to try one out of sympathy.... :)

OK question:Surely you've answered your own question here: the shop is still full of them because nobody wants them... :)
If Dean style 'have someone’s eye out' metal guitars are so hated (to which I concur) why is my local guitar store FULL OF THE BUGGERS!

Theres jus something about it that makes it look like a goth kid - its trying to be all mean and tough and evil but really it wet the bed till it was 14, has never had a girlfriend and is terrified of pretty much everything.
Actually the reason I like it is cos I think its the only one of the "metal" guitars that doesn't have that image!
I mean, I think this looks great:

Ah, I didn't realise that was the ESP "F"!There's two version, the cheaper one with fewer vertices. And the more expensive one (see pic). Then you have the G and the GT with H-S or H-H configurations.
I really, really like that shape - it's one of the very few "metal"/Floyd/black hardware guitars I'd seriously consider buying, even though I'd look an utter fool holding one.

It kind of looks like the "elephant man" of the guitar world - the headstock is all swollen and deformed, and as for that lower horn - LOL! The only thing that could make that guitar worse would be to tele-ify the top horn (which would then match the dubious sexuality of the lower horn) and add the foul tele bridge and control plate. Then, truly, the most hideous guitar in the world would have been created.
I love the title of that ebay sale: "MUST SEE" !!!!! Now my eyes burrrrnnn and I can't see!!!

:lol:
They were I presume they were aimed at young metal heads but missed the target completely. They had all these castles, dragons carved or molded into the body shapes. No one was playing them. Because I spent most of my day either on the Bkp or Feline stand I noticed that no one was stopping to have a go on them.
I wonder if Afghan or Feline can remember who they were. Its worth a google search for them if we can remember the name. I don't think I've ever seen anything so foul in a guitar before!
I loathe 335s - not for the shape but for how impossible they are to work on electrically - keyhole surgery through the F Hole
Put a rear access cover on them and they would be a joy.

The Flying V ones were really nice guitars made by Case Guitars - Tim borrowed one for a while - they all had BK pickups on them (with a wierd back height adjust option. I know the one he tried used the hipshot Grand Piano bridge. They didn't have anything molded into them (they were opposite Feline and behind BK at LGS2007).

Roo, if you don't like designs of the fifties and you don't like pointy stuff either, better stop playing ANY electric guitar. Apart from the pointy and horny designs, all guitar shapes are designed in the fifties. Les Pauls, Strats, Teles, V's, Explorers etc.

Of course everything is always built on what has gone before, but my main gripe with those Gretsch guitars is that they are stuck in the 50s!!
the Billy-Bo is brand new, the 125th Anniversary is brand new.i'd really like to try one of those billy-bos
all these haters of Flying Vs and headless guitars
>shakes head sadly<
And Gibson and Fender aren't?
Let's go through the gretsch catalogue. The Tennessee Rose line are all sixties guitars and so are all the double cut guitars. The corvette is also 60's. The Power Jet is a fifties guitar with modern upgrades, as are the Setzer models, the Billy-Bo is brand new, the 125th Anniversary is brand new.
If Gretsch is stuck in the fifties, then so are all the other companies.
F holes are for violins, violas, cellos and double basses, I'm afraid. I can't stand the sight of them on guitars!
Can you imagine going down your local to see a band and the guitarist is playing one of these hideous examples.
And I saw these for the first time today. The Peavey Tragic and Void. Never were two guitars more aptly named:*likes, quietly* :oops:

WHAT?! How can anyone like those things?
But I do agree the headstock is the worst aspect... did they actually sit for hours and days pondering that, then go "Eureka, it's perfect!" :? ? Or was it just a slip of the router? :|

OK, I'm going to limit myself to guitars I've actually owned or played (you'll get no argument from me about the utter vileness of the BC Rich Beast, Dean Razorback or that ridiculous Zakk Wylde abortion Gibson recently dreamt up... :roll:)
So I'll say Jackson Warrior. It pains me to say anything bad about anything with Jackson on the headstock, but the Warrior is just flat out hideous:

I've never wanted to own one - I don't think I'd get on with the "quirky" hardware and switching - but I think they look great.
i guess we need an original corvus picture

but after the 27 th you'll need some help to put your fingers on one fret at a time. :lol:Indeed, I imagine it's quite difficult to play when you've already died of shame.

it really looks like a klingon or a cylon warship...
and this fascinates me a bit...
the same idea came to my mind when I first saw this thing
Are you going to order one ? .....no, this cannot happen, the idea is too much frightening !
