I so want one of these!

Wow, those guitars are lovely.
And yeah, those headstocks look amazing. Really original, although i'm not sure if the novelty of it would wear off.
-
I must admit I was surprised to see it was Tyler you were going on about!
I quite like the headstock myself, but most people seem to hate it.

Probably liked only by guitar players if at all.
Cannot explain why, but I loved it from first sight. And then it fullfills a purpose I guess by adding more mass to the neck.
-
Ah, but is more mass a good thing? There seem to have been endless discussions about lightweight vintage tuners vs. heavyweight cast tuners, etc etc...
I think more mass in the sense of a fatter neck is good, but does that also apply to a skinny neck with a big headstock? I don't know.
-
Oh god it's hideous. It burns my eyes just to look at that monstrosity!

I never, ever, ever thought I'd say this, but I'm with badger on this one :)

not keen

Is is just me or do Tylers just look like a corrupted MS Paint picture of a Strat?
-
i love the finishes on Tylers, and everyone that's played them seems to rave about how good the necks are, but i just can't get past the sheer hideousness of that headstock! what demented fool ever thought that was an aesthetically pleasing alternative to the Fender? yes, it's distinctive, but only because no one else would be daft enough to use anything like it!
sorry Hunter, only my opinion ;)
-
I'm not sure what I dislike more, the unbalanced headstock shape or the hideous logo :?
-
Haha, I quite enjoy this :O)
-
I hate it so much, it just looks awful. Needs to be burned!
-
I'm not fussed either way about the headstock but I really like the finish on those multi coloured guitars..... wonder how they do that??
-
Never played one, so I've no idea if I like it or not. Some of the bodies kind of remind me of those swirl JEMs they used to make, but only more muted.
-

And I'm with both!! :D
I like the finishes, etc... but that headstock makes me blind...
-
Disgusting, Vile, Monstrosity, Carbuncle of a headstock.... :rock:
Provides space for vomit to drip off that 70s Logo font...
-
The headstocks look rank but the rest of it is good.
-
I really like how people aren't holding back on this subject. I never heard so many people say so many negative things in one post at this forum :D
But I'm with the majority on this one. It is a quite ugly headstock. I think it would look better if they hadn't written Tyler all over it, but even without it would still look bad. The last headstock on the orange guitar is far the prettiest/less ugliest because of the missing logo IMO. Part of my disliking is because I'm much more fan of 3 on top 3 on bottom headstock (or what you call 'em). They just look more harmonical to me.
-
i've only tried one tyler, but if it was anything to go by... it was nice enough not to worry too much about the headstock (assuming you had tons of spare money to blow on one). I don't hate the headstock as a lot of people seem to do, but it's not exactly amazing either.
-
Haha, I did say I thought most people hated that headstock. :lol:

Hahahahaha, dude, you get the first price in rant-innovativeness :lol:
-
Having played a few, although it aint a pretty headstock shape, I'd live with it . I thought those that I played were superb to play and sounded great too.
-
I'm not a fan tbh. However i'm not sure if its because of the headstock shape or the logo!

Is it the "UGLY STICK" which I hear some people get whacked with?

Bloody Brilliant! :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
Tylers do play very nicely - like buttah (as they say), very much in the Tom Anderson vein of 'Strats for bankers'. It's that super-clean Strat thing - pingy tone, super-easy action etc... I like a guitar to fight back and make you work for it.
-
hmmm looks like he ordered a bunch of Warmoth uncut paddle necks and forgot to shape them.
I jest, they're great lookin guits idd. Hope to try one someday.
-
gadzooks man!
that is that mutant freak? I would never bring something that hideous on stage!
-
Hmmm, guys, you gotta up it a notch, coz I still want one 8)
-
It's a Strat, made ugly.
I hate it.

I presume you're referring to a telecaster neck there...

It's like a double telecaster headstock - how does that make you feel!

Inside the Tyler headstock there are hidden several tele headstocks :O)

Exactly.
That's how bad it is.
