Quite amusing seeing the different shapes all merged together. Dare I say it though, I'd rather have the chick in that pic than the guitar ;)

I think the top half of the body's too big in proportion to the bottom half.

Same applies to the guitar.

they're both nice, but with the guitar the upper mockingbird horn seems a bit out of proportion, i can imagine if this would be shrunk by 1/3rd or so it would look perfect.

I see what you mean but I'm veering towards Framus myself!

I'm thinking Paul Stanley and those silly-looking Silvertones he endorses.
