I guess my latest purchase qualifies:

I mean, I think it's cool as hell, but it definitely has a certain degree of ugly going on. Which is probably what makes it so cool.

^ ^ Amazing, but that vibrato unit somehow looks like it belongs in the kitchen. ;D

Is it yours, frelonvert?. I'm really curious if they're 3 tiny knobs or switches?
There's no on-off switch near the rollers (like on a JM). I can't get my head around how the circuit might work.

Agreed on that Guyatone too. The more I see it the more I love it!
You think you can't, you wish you could, I know you can, I wish you would. Slip inside this house as you pass by.

How about the Ibanez Eagle? I bought this very early pre-serial one a few months ago which was rebranded as Antoria for the UK market. I kinda wish that they'd just made a regular Jazz Bass copy with the eagle pickguard and not fucked about with the horns.

I'll trade you a Jazz Bass copy and I'll paint you an Eagle pickguard if you like. Say when.

Pretty sure it's awesome. Definitely like it as a piece of art. If I could actually afford to buy it I probably would not care what other people thought about it.
