Bright lights can hypnotize.


That being said, that is one badass looking guitar.

OR, is it because rabbits can't see colors so you are missing out?

Because you know people will buy it simply because of how it looks and not because of its tone and feel?

Is that in honor of the Cherry Poppin' Daddies!?!
That thing is kind of a sore sight, but their bassist makes me want to cry at night.

I LOVE the look of that colored laminate body! They've been doing colored laminated for knife handles for years, and this is a logical step. A good quality laminate makes just as good a base for sound as solid wood. I want one!!

maybe the vibrating color wavelengths cancel out crappily played note wavelengths, or at least the marketing people bought that pitch.

I'd play it in a second if I played guitar. And everything I played on it would by psychadelic and heavy.
