Ugliest guitar in the world

What do you folks think are some of the ugliest looking guitars in the world? I don't care if they sound and feel better than anything, I'm talking sheer looks here.

I personally hate the look of PRS guitars more than anything. Parker NiteFlies are pretty nasty too. I also don't like guitars that are sort of strat-shaped but pointier and sans-pickguard (like any 80's hair band guitars). Teles are sort of gross too, but I like 'em better than the aforementioned ones.

I've said my bit. Now you go.

Les Paul Studios. Or any LP that's black.

Ibanez Artcore guitars. They're like Playskool verstions of classic guitars, appearance wise.

Parkers look pretty awesome, IMHO... but then, so do Teles and some of the superstrats out there.

hurt my feelings! i got a parker p-38 which looks exactly like a nitefly....and i love it.


i think the ugliest guitars i've seen are the ibanez artcore talman and that nasty single cut thing they have.


that and the SG special thing that epiphone makes....it looks like it's begging quietly "kill me....kill....meeeeeee."


no one understand why i end up buying an epi SG everytime i go....and why i smash them....i say it's to set them free from their miserable existance.
