Re: Beautiful and Ugly guitars.
Funny you should post that Quest, I'd never heard of Quest guitars until today when browsing ebay and found this one
Guy wants way too much for it I think but it looks super cool.

Re: Beautiful and Ugly guitars.

i mean it is pretty ugly. at the very least it's weird looking, but at the same time it looks pretty damn cool.
