| Outstanding, Michael! That's the coolest (strangest) P-Bass that I've ever seen. Can you provide us with a brief history of the instrument? |

Better and better, it's just a sick idea, Brian Wilson? was he an innovative player? did he push the boundries of bass playing? Yet again Michael pulls the big 50lb pike out of the lake.  |

STOP THE COMPETITION, IVE JUST WON WITH THIS:
ok it has to be a pointless fininsh, this person was a great songwriter/performer/artist/icon BUT he was'nt anything special on the fingerboard, infact he was damn right mediocre, also this guitar is a tribute guitar, looks nothing like the original just a totaly pointless tribute to the artist, and, the original artists guitar was a load of cack too, it was no '59 Jimmy Page Les Paul, and it sounds complete rubbish (i actualy saw and played one of these tributes at a guitar show a couple of years ago) AND it's over priced too, so i think i win... now for the speech, i would like to thank.... oh sorry here is the guitar, get ready for the big cringe...

| Now, on downright tackiness, that is definitley a contender. The "Rastafaraiiii!" fretboard markers, the photo-print Marley-face. Are there no limits to the depths that the epiphone name can be dragged down to? |

| I think Mickey Mouse and company take the prize for tackiness. |

Check out my Fenix Charvelle type thing for a nice, sedate, sensible finish.

But the mickey mouse was a one off for a single customer (Michael Jackson?) where as my WINNING guitar is made by the masses for the masses, and as for the Fenix, is that the best you can offer?? roll on the prize money.... by the way Michael / Jason, what is the prize for the best offering? a Bulsara Special??? |
