I can’t believe they didn’t do a purple one. I think all I’ve seen him play in the last few years has been Greenie or a purple-something.

Obviously based off the Jasckon Rhoads V. I don’t hate the black one, but the treble cut away bugs my OCD.

Completely agree about the cutaway. It just doesn't look right and throws the whole thing off.

2 fucking K for a freakin MIC guitar? GTFO. I don't care WHO the sig is for. Unreal.

Interested to hear how those pups sound.

I don't get it. It looks like a Rhodes. He used to play a Rhodes. How is this ugly and a Rhodes is not? The CAR one in the video ad looks nice.

Aren't those made in Korea?

I do think the SV shape they sell here in America (the continent) is pretty silly-looking. They ruined the Alexi.

A king V or a DV8 would have ruled; I hate that Arrow shape.

No.

Actually I’m not sure…but even if it is MIK, I’m still not paying 2K for it.

Yeah, I'm not getting one either. But guitars are expensive nowadays.

I mean, people are reselling the Adam Jones Epiphone for 2-3K, LOL.

I think it looks alright but as others have pointed out...the Rhoad's thing has been done. Credit to Randy for designing a functional guitar with access to the upper frets though. That guy had it figured out.
