Random Guitar Hall of Fail…

The Wangcaster Has a Sister…

You can see the making of this pink cock-rock guitar at Wheeler's Guitars blog. The client wanted his custom guitar to have a unique shape - what's more unique than a penis-shaped guitar, right ? - and no scratchplate, so the luthier had creative freedom in the...

Les Paul Justin Bieber Signature?

At least the portrait is more realistic than the Stratocaster Beyoncé Signature !

How Tasteful !

I can't unsee the pickups selector switch placement. Now I'll just try to forget it !

You Don’t Wanna Mess With These Guys…

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to another edition of the “Let’s Laugh at Guitars” show! This headless guitar takes the discomfort to a whole new level.

Worst Headstock Ever ?

This rather ugly headstock belongs to a Gibson 7 string steel semi-acoustic guitar. Only three of these guitars were hand-built in the 90s by luthier Roger Giffin when he worked for the Gibson Custom Shop. This guitar has such heavy-gauged strings on the bass side...
