I had a burst of creativity last night and felt like doing some drawing/designing for "new" Feelgood models. I say "new" in quotations because a lot of my designs, as usual, borrow a lot from other existing designs, but I try to reimagine shapes in unique ways or fuse them with other parts/shapes to make new wacky creations, and occasionally i even manage to make something somewhat unique looking, like my Space Cadet model which started as a sketch just like these!
I wanted to pop in here to share these with you guys, mostly just for the pure nerd-dom, but also to see which of these have the most "interest" and would make good additions to our lineup. I thought itd be fun to have a little shootout poll to see which ones OSG likes best. May the best shapes win!!
A lot of these guitars i will honestly probably never get around to building, but i included them anyways for the fun of having some outliers.
You can select up to 3 favorite designs. I'm interested to see if my personal favorites stick out to you guys the same way they do to me, and also of course welcome any feedback, negative or positive 
The Contenders:
Azalea - Kind of a jagstang, but smaller, less oblong, and mixed with a swinger instead of a mustang
Bloomer - 24" scale tele/mustang mashup. More refined than my previous attempts at doing this same mashup. A bit of an Alamo vibe to it which was a happy accident
Bruiser - Jazz bass shaped guitar, made for offset lovers. Had a wacky idea for 6-pole pickups made in a Jazz Bass pickup casing.. not sure if itd work, but itd be a cool look
Catalyst - Funky Doublecut Jaguar/Powercaster type thing
Chroma 6 - inspired by Teisco Spectrum 5. Tweaked the body shape for a sort of tulip vibe.. Idea was for the rainbow switches to be custom Moog Style rocker switches, either painted or manufactured in rainbow colors.. Ahem.. Guitar Form
Daytripper - weirdo Powercaster/Maverick/Swinger mashup, also works well as an XII
Daylily - inspired by an old Guyatone model. Basically trying to fuse wacky japanese 60s aesthetics with "Traditional" Fender look.
Deathcaster / Super Deluxe - Powercaster/Maverick/Tele Deluxe fusion. Meant to be my most "aggressive" model; hardtail, double humbuckers, meaner, angrier lines. (Thinking about just naming this one the Super Deluxe since i already have a "deathcaster" model)
Iris - Mashup of the Squier Venus and the Jagstang, a little Kurt and Courtney DNA together felt fitting.
Mandarin - Mandocaster shaped 24" or 22.5" scale guitar. Probably one of my favorites of the bunch. I'll be building one for myself regardless lol
Nightcap - Swinger/Maverick mashup. Would also make a great 24" scale 12 string...
Pacesetter - Based on Eddie Peabody Banjoline 1 off prototype made in 1966 by one of my design idols, Roger Rossmeisl. He and Leo were big fans of Eddie's, who was regarded as the "plectrum banjo king" of the 20's-40's. Had a really cool idea to further dial up the late 60s weirdness and play homage to Roger by making one of these out of mahogany and staining it brown like the 60s fender acoustics, with a hockey stick headstock, metallic gold pickguard, and hidden pickups to further make it look "acoustic." This also pays further homage to Eddie and his "banjoline" project with Fender as the only other model known to have been made for Eddie by Fender very closely resembles the "aesthetic" of roger's Acoustic line. I'll attach pics of all three so you can see what the heck im babbling about
Satisfier (Non-Reverse) - Basically a reverse SuperSonic, which is a reversed jag, so this is like a non reverse jag, but not a jag, because its a Satisfier, but not just a satisfier; a non reverse Satisfier. Got all that?
Stargazer - Kind of like a mustang with more gizmos and a double-jag sort of look, but fanned out a bit to make it more "space age" and funky. Kind of resembles the guild surfliner or a G&L Fallout, but i like my design way more than those
Type 1 Fat Cat - an attempt to make the "vibe" of a type one marauder/dreamweaver more accessible/affordable, and in a shorter scale length. 2x Hidden pickups instead of 4 and traditionally sized (read: readily available) jaguar plates mean these are easier and cheaper to produce, while not losing much of the "magic"
Wave Racer - Based on a 60's Aria-produced "Toledo" guitar. split 3 piece pickguard, really wacky vintage aesthetics. Whats not to love?
Wrangler - Probably the most "country" looking guitar ive ever designed, hence the name. I cant even decide why it looks so country, aside from the obvious tele influence. Just looks like some honky tonk riffs are ready to belt out of it at any moment. A gaudy sparkle finish would look great methinks....
The shape works great as a 12
