| There've been some pretty ugly guitars up for auction on eBay recently, but this one takes the cake IMHO. :eek: |

Location: south east Michigan | I might be wrong but I think I have seen that finish before. Maybe in the engineering room on the tour.
They had a couple strange ones out on display. Anyone else remember that blue beads-o-water on a waxed surface example??
Sometimes I think they put those things out just to see what kind of reaction they get. |

Vic :cool: That's where I recognized that from... Counter-top at 7-11.
I really do like that blue one, looks like my shower wall.
No, that is kinda intriguing. |
