the guitar body looks like... half a pair of glasses
the neck looks like... the leg of a pair of glasses

sometime in the recent past a midi nerd hipster got punched in the face, and as he stared down at the ground, where the broken pieces of his awful glasses lay, he had a eureka moment. "To kickstarter!"

I like when these guys used to wear their guitars up really high like they're in a prog-jazz fusion band that wants comfortable access to the entire fretboard, but instead just plays a syncopated drop-D tuning open powerchord berakdown riff the entire song and then the one kid who spent an afternoon learning a-shape minor arpeggio sweeps haves at the upper register

Got this baby for Christmas about 2/3 years ago

It's my only guitar and I guess it doesn't sound too bad except for the high strings they sound really poo poo and I don't know how to describe it like whiny/twangy? I never bothered to get it intonated because I was a dumb rear end in a top hat but my friend said he'd do it for me tomorrow.

Please feel free to ridicule and mock my ugly guitar. What you can't see in the picture is all the metal parts like the pick-ups and bridge have this ugly fake dirt effect on them.

That twang is probably because the strings are hitting the frets, raise the string height at the bridge a little, see if that helps.

Does your guitar have any paint left on the pointy bits?

I assume that involves twisting the screw thingies on the bridge? How will I know I've done it and not hosed myself over?

Also a lot on the neck points but the ends of the two bottom horns broke off earlier this year.

I thought I just did take a joke. Self-deprecatingly, even.
That's how I meant it, anyway.

O, I will still vehemently defend my purchases, though; unless you intend to ban me again.
