This is actually one of the least ugly Pablo guitars I've seen. In fact, it's a beautiful instrument aside from the shape, which looks quite awkward to play.

If the body was reversed it would be pretty sweet.

Yeah, ugly but NOT a Pablo design.

whatever your name or your capacities, it's a Demon !
So a personnal, individual, specific ( I can't say more ) shape with its
so uncommon oddities !:fawk:

@ guitar's specs:

"The lower horn was actually molded from Pablo's flaccid member!" :ugh:

seriously though, I don't think it looks too bad. Never been a fan of that shape, but if someone were to say, give me the guitar, I wouldn't go and sell it just because of the shape. finish is nice too.

There's way worse Pablo creations out there. But then again I'm a Demon owner :)

I do think it's a tricky shape to use for a 7 string it just looks more frumpy and odd compared to a sixer, and the upper fret access can suffer even more-so.

I am pleasantly surprised they put BKP's in it rather then EMG's.


It's an acquired taste shape, just like the Broderick.

I think it's rather ugly too but beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as already seen here many love the look. But, the look has very little to do with the build. Customs are just that, you can choose whatever you want and if he's a master builder I'd still want him on my project so long as it meets all my specs and design.

That said, just about $6400!!?? GTFO. And the listing has ended... for real? The custom War Kelly that Fuller's Vintage was trying to sell for so long (and seems to now have finally sold) was a little less than half that price.

Is it just me or is the headstock on this straighter than a normal Jackson pointy? I've seen some other pointy 7 string Jackson headstocks and they looked quite skinny and more angled :)lol:).

Could just be imagining it.

Overall, the smurf hat headstock looks much better on the 7 and 8 strings IMHO.

I really dig it actually. Whoever snatched it up is one lucky son of a gun. :agreed:
