ES guitars
These look like some really affordable guitars as well, if any of you guys wanna check them out. Or if you've already got one or have played one how are they?

$1150 isn't exactly my idea of an "affordable" guitar... And I think most will agree.

NO, I definately think they are hidious EXCEPT for the JC-3 which caught my eye.
I was more or less wondering if anyone had heard of these guys though, still looks like RAN is MUCH better for custom metal guitars though.

I like them but I would never get one personally. I would want one with a tremelo system but that's just me.
BTW. What famous metal band logo inspired the JR-71? I can't figure it out.

HEINOUS!
HIDIOUS
BLAAAAHHHGGGG
dare to be different, how about jumping face first into a concrete wall, thats different.
yeah... not enough tone wood for decent resonance... and why pay a grand for a tiny piece of handcarved wood that looks like a 6 yr old made it?

Well those are fucking hideous. I have nothing against extravagant guitars, but this is just too much..
You can get foreign made neckthru Neal Mosers or new NT BCR's for 800$ or less and they look and play billions of times better than these abominations.

dude those are the ugliest guitars ive ever seen
my shit looks better than those fuckin things.......hmmmm wait
scat guitar....... that would be cool.
anyway if the thought of buying one of those things crosses your head again,
simply close your garage, turn on your car or truck then sit and wait for about 1hour or 2, then take a little nap hopefully your mind will change

Weird things they are... The CT looked alright, but it loks unlikely you could coax a good tone out of them.
For some reason, I really liked the JR-69. Probably it's odd shape. And it looks better for getting tone out of.
They would have been a hit 20 years ago, I think.

What is Ugly?
These guitars are original designs, when was the last time you saw something innovative in the guitar industry? You are probably used to looking at flying V's, etc. If you are happy with the carbon copy guitar that was designed over 30 years ago,go right ahead..keep rocking with the old timers.
These guitars are played by bands like Bloodbath and Paragon, they could be playing the same guitar you are playing but they are not, they use ES Guitars. If you like the guitar then it go fo it. Cheers!

Hah, just because they are original doesnt mean they are any good. Just plain bad looking guitars.

I like the guitars. I don't know if I'd buy any do to the price and lack of tremelo systems. I'd rather just get a Jonze Custom Shop Guitar. But the one the guy in Bloodbath uses I like that one.
