The rosewood board is kind of streaky and the shade of the headstock is lighter than the body and I'm not a dirty hippie...
Talk me out of this, please

It's also ugly as sin and horrendously overpriced.
Apart from all of the above, yeah, it's great (?!?!?!?!)

Re: Talk me out of this, please
If you're buying it just because you want to buy something I don't think it's going to bring you much pleasure beyond its arrival and the short-lived chit-chat you'll get from a NGD post.
It's a parts telecaster, and I highly doubt it's one of those temple of tone examples.

If you need to be talked out of buying that, I'm not sure what to tell you.
"Don't buy it", I guess.

As stated, over priced by twice what it's worth... in my opinion.

Not even just trying to play along here, that thing is ugly as sin 
I actually said “no fucking way” out loud when I saw the price. Put it towards something else.

Buy a CV Tele and give the $600 in savings to a good charity. Everyone will be better off, especially you.

It looks cool, but it really seems to be overpriced. Offer them $500 and come up to $600 (with shipping), if you really want it.

It has it's charms. I didn't read the description but the logo is off location on the headstock and it has two string trees -- often marks of Squier neck disguised as a Fender. Same with the body (ask what thickness the body is, if 1.5in then Squier, 1.75in then Fender maybe).
You could buy a MIM, and a kit body, to ink your own designs on and swap it.

For that kind of money you can buy like 80 used budget guitars from CL & go down as an admired legend on SquierTalk for the largest NGD haul in history.

It reminds me of those adult coloring books I see at the grocery checkout.

Re: Talk me out of this, please
I'm not actually going to buy it (no more guitars any time soon) but I do like the hand drawn goofiness of the art.
As far as price, it's cheaper on their own site but I don't think it's extreme. If you're one of the select few who does like the finish - $200 Musikraft neck, $250 in small parts/pickups/etc., $150 for the body, $100 for the neck finish alone. In 6 more months they'd probably be willing to bargain down to $800-850.
