| When Mike does his "part two" roundup, I comfortably predict that that barnacle-encrusted eyesore will be in the top three, glw. After that, this thread's turning distinctly diiirty. First we get a smiling girl clutching a large carrot, then Goldie's avatar pic. I recognize that guitar stand. Took two hours to inflate with a foot pump and still couldn't handle my 34" without going down on me. I asked for a refund but they promptly charged me double (burdumm - tish!) |

| The one GLW posted looks like it has been left on the beach for the last 45 years and has been encrusted with everything from seashells to seagull crap. Awful. |

| That your guitar stand "went down"---My vote for the "WORST" has to be that mess with the paste on crap |

Not really meant to be a playable guitar though, we had one like that before, i think it had mosaic tiles all over it, it was meant to be an ornament of some sort.
If you 'newcomers' have a look over the pages of this post you will see some real eyesores. |

Lee, I'd never accuse you of being supercilious for the sake of it. You're not desperately trying to keep the "MTV" guitar in the #1 spot for all time are you? Even "Wet Wet Wet" pulled the plug on that song of theirs after 18 weeks  |

Nice, those look about the right gauge of string for SRV too.
Thinking about it, how do you make strings out of Lego?? |

| 601, that's a great post. At first, I was thinking of The White Stripes 2nd video, which was pretty effective use of Lego, but that SRV is about as accurate as snap-together cuboids go. Right down to the whammy. Incidentally, how on earth can anyone play an uppy-downy trem? Being a lefty, I often have to play on a righty guitar, which is fine - unless a trem is in the way. Then I'm burgered. |
