No offence intended to any Christians, but this made me chuckle...

Look at the Q and A on the page.

The strat looks awesome though.

The guy who asked the question obviously thought he was being hilarious, but I like the way the seller didn't rise to the bait.  8)

Shame they couldn't have come up with a slightly more Fender-like "Jesus" logo, but I like brown Strats with black scratchplates.  They're ugly-beautiful.

Sorry, but someone that puts that kind of cr@p on their guitar and doesn't expect to get some ribbing is an ass! That's just tacky.

Same goes for any other religious symbol.

I would think any 'real' Christian would be pretty upset by the guitar, not the ribbing the seller may get.

I don't get the impression the seller is the guy who actually put all the biblical stuff on the guitar.  He doesn't seem at all uptight about it.

Oh, I don't care if he is or not. I'm just sayin, if you walk around with a target on your back, don't be alarmed when people start slinging arrows in your direction!

it would take less than a minute to remove with a good sharp razor blade(scr@ping rather than cutting) , might need a fresh coat of laquer after but still a simple job if you like the strat.
