I don't want to like this Custom Esquire. The crack in the wood on the upper bout has been cleverly fixed with walnut inlay and the squared off sides show that the source wood was clearly a bit too small for the template. These are both things that would bother me on any other guitar, but for some reason it's ok here.
I guess the simplicity sells it for me, though at $1000 I'm not quite that sold.

- An Epiphone Neck Attached To... What On Earth Is That Supposed To Be?
guitarz.blogspot.com: Do you think someone actually consciously DESIGNED this guitar body? My guess is that it's the result of randomly cutting out shapes from a piece of wood with a jigsaw. It does have a vague heraldic look to it, but I'm...
