    Default Yet another contender for ugliest guitar ever...

    New limited edition "Joker Purple" Synyster Gates Schecter makes me want to gouge out my eyes with a rusty spoon.

    On a different body shape, that would actually be kind of cool.

    I actually like the color combination, though I probably wouldn't buy a guitar with that paint scheme. It's at least something different. That being said, I don't like the body shape or the appointments.

    Yup. Would look good on a USA type Charvel.

    you know, on second look, i think the biggest objections i have are the headstock (does it double as a bottle opener?) and the ridiculous fingerboard inlays. just a little too over-the-top for me. plus the gothic style of both sort of clashes with the idea of a green and purple striped guitar. although i'm not really into the colors either. probably because i have two brothers who are MUCH younger than me whose mother just loooooooooooooved him, and i also have a 2yo myself, green and purple just scream "BARNEY" to me. as in the dinosaur, not homer simpson's alcoholic friend. barney is banned at my house. *shudders*

    Don't like it but definitely not the ugliest imho.
    Play it like you mean it!

    I'm a Batman fan, so I can appreciate the color scheme, but not on that body style. A Jackson soloist with pointed horns could work though.

    I don't know, I think the joker could rock on that guitar.

    Maybe UGLIEST is a bit far. Like LivingDead I can stand neon and fluorescent colours, swirls and crazy stuff, but it just does not work for me. I actually don't mind the shape, and think it would be pretty cool with matt black and an off-gold binding, kinda like the ESP Eclipse...

    Blingvaders, inlays and headstock don't help.

    I'd like it better without the inlays.
