Mmmm, I saw those in the Guitar World Buyers Guide. IMHO it is effing hideous.

I'd rather play ESP.

It's not bad. except the pickup selector location. My gut would so be flickign that thing like the Cheat during a light switch rave. My tone would be schizophrenic at best.

Yeah, I think it's kinda ugly and would also rather play ESPee. It rips off the V plate of the real Jackson Rhoads and Dean guitars, plus the pup selector switch is a rip-off of the Rhoads models that Dan Spitz of Anthrax had (PCS series?).

played one at namm....thought they were kinda neat, in a novelty kind of way. i also like the chrome pickups...but they look really cheesy in person, as they're just chromed plastic.

Ah, it's Di-Pinto! I was thinking "why the hell would you name a guitar company 'dip-into'???"
