What they were thinking: kids today have unlimited money because of rich parents anyway, and will want to look like individuals whilst having a bit of retro "i'm a hippy so I dont care about anything" flare.

I actually kind of like 'em. I usually like natural colors & finishes but its refreshing to see a change every now & then.

I think they look OK.... if they altered the body outlines a little, adjusted the scale length, had a bolt on neck, gave it a vibrato and put 3 single coils in, changed the colour scheme and called it a snappy name something like 'sratosomething' it would be a lot better though. :lol:

They need to take a huge chunk of the money away from the R&D people and give it to the quality control department.

Well, I kinda like the rainbow one...if it had trapezoid inlays on the neck I'd like it better.
