It's not a pretty guitar.

But the title of this thread is really unfortunate.  It's just feeding his obsession.  It's like giving him licence to ramble on about bulbous bits, wasting tone wood, anyone who's ever played a Tele looking like a complete knob jockey, etc.....

12 strings need a lot of headstock.

Personally, I like it.

i like the idea of the guitar, and would be happy to own it.. but i do agree with the others that its not pretty - though what better option for headstock would there be in this case?

I like it as well, I prefer that headstock to the hockey stick one they put on the Fender Electric XII.

Will Roo start making excuses to keep going on this thread after he seems the Tele, as the other thread? :P

A twelve string needs a big headstock. It will be less elegant then a sixstring tele. But it's not too bad.

I like that headstock. It's completely in line with tele aesthetics, no frills, simplest thing that gets the job done vibe.
