Hmm. It might play really well, but I don't love the carved top, or the curve with the kink in it of the upper part of the body. Not a big fan of holes in headstocks either. But it might play nice.
 
I really hate the weird body top contours, but other than that it is OK.
 
Not my thing....but bonus points for being original without being overly ostentatious.

I always wanted to try one. I remember they used to advertise in the back of Guitar World when I was in high school and I loved the way they looked.
 
YES YES YES

Seriously, awesome. It'd also look good with a Starfleet uniform, although the sight of me in Lycra would be horrifying beyond all imagination.
