RE: Jesus Jaguar

The front looks like the level on Super Mario Brothers where Luigi goes swimming to get through the tubes.

Thought I might raise the bar a little here...(I'm actually kind of sort of semi-tempted to pull the trigger on this) http://www.trademe.co.nz/a.aspx?id=300539094" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I'm just disappointed that the one thing I really wanted to see, WEIRD JAGUARS never really appeared (Barry Gibb notwithstanding). Maybe I just need to start a new thread: WEIRD JAGUARS THAT DON'T FEATURE BARRY GIBB or JESUS! ;D

That is the grimmest excuse for a guitar I've ever seen. Perhaps the perfect riposte to those who quibble about Gibson's current output, myself included.

I'm sorry, ma'am. The operation was a failure. He'll look like that for the rest of his life.

Had a friend in high school who had an MIII- he had it all striped out with tape like EVH. It was hideous, but the dude could SHRED. It was never my cup o' tea, but watching all that widdly-widdly-deedle-doo was a fun way to pass the lunch hour- until he got careless and someone snatched his stompboxes out of his unattended case. He never brought it back.
