Both from the same seller, and apparently both scratchbuilt.
Is the Warped Tour making a comeback as an acoustic event? Warped Unplugged!

Those are amazing... when luthiery comes out the other side and becomes outsider art.

They are cool, in an abstract anti-art kinda way, but tuners facing forwards? Silly!!

Yeah holy fucking shit it’s like in Alien 4 where Ripley finds a room full of the previously-failed attempts to clone her after splicing her DNA with that of the Xenomorph; all bloated and perpetually suffering and begging for death. Those guys^, if they could, I’m certain would be begging for a similar fate

These were built by someone who has never played a guitar in his/her life, right? They must be completely unplayable and unintonatable. Why do they even exist? ???

“Shit, man that ain’t no big deal I could do that easy”

Or some such unearned confidence. Kill those fuckers with fire

It can be a scary world out there for old guitars, but then I saw this picture of the Torquays with a nice old Jazzmaster and felt a bit better.

...hopefully, they didn't cut it up to turn it into an electric banjo when they became the Monks.

That body shape and everything else look way off, I don't think this was ever actually a jaguar to begin with.

I'm absolutely confident that's a Serviceman Jaguar and literally any mod you do to it is bound to be equally an improvement and a waste.
