No way man - I like it. It looks MEAN >:( ;D . 'Beast' could only be used as a positive term for this guitar.

Form over function be damned. The more I look at this guitar the more I like it. It reminds me of industrial machinery and it's guards made out of perspex/lexcan materials.

True. Myself and Nolan (the other country guy here) could make special use of a guitar like that!

It also looks a bit like an educational instruction model for guitar electronics class. I like that.

Surfcasters are ugly but sometimes ugly can be good. That blue one is ugly in an awesome way, the other two are just busted.

My Maverick is the good kind of ugly(imo).

Of the guitars posted, I haven't seen an ugly one yet. I guess it depends on your personal definition of ugly. I have a jagmaster with a huge locking trem bridge on it that I will post up here, I'm sure alot of people will think its ugly, but I kind of like it.
