All the good designs were taken years ago and are subject to intellectual property, copyright or some other such legal protection. Thus leaving all the unwanted, and unloved shapes.

Of which that is number 2 on the list

Lew

I think it looks great!

CloudNine

Not feeling that one... Body looks like was made by amateur, in the garage, without having the right tools available.

And 'glow in the dark inlays' are not really for adults.

Edit. Oh god, the 'Switchbitch' is even more hideous....

mattacjones

Thanks @Lew. Well, whatever, I won't be buying one. Clearly not much of a resale market.

I've seen worse but I wouldn't pay a lot for it unless it sounded spectacular.

It is a perfect example of where 'the lines are wrong'. The lines are wrong theory comes up everywhere - architecture, car bodies, dressmaking, jewellery, and so on. Obviously, it also comes up in faces - beautiful when the lines are right, ugly when the lines are wrong. One of the ideas behind Platonic forms.

You may grow to like the guitar but you will never love the look of it - will you?

The Venus has possibly the weirdest description of a guitar ever:

Ravishingly beautiful and sensuously crescendoed into ecstasy… she snuggles tenderly to your belly, you gently touch her neck and together you’ll celebrate sonorous intercourse you’ve never experienced ever before!

I like the glow in the dark markers idea.

I'll never be able to 'un-see' that....

I quite like the body shape.

I don't like the hardware choices for such a modern body shape, and I especially hate the one-on one-off knob/pickguard thing.

Don't like the headstock.
