Wylde Audio guitars $999 : What do you think?

[megaboogie]

Looks like they have several models shipping next month, $999 and $1099 prices.
I thought they were going to be MIA and expensive, but looks like these are MIK and more affordable than his Gibson CS models.
Not really digging the look, but I do own a Gibson ZW model and love it. I wouldn't mind trying the Odin for $999.

Hideous.....just say no!

It almost makes Billy Blades' amp cosmetics look tasty

They really are ugly looking. Although, If I had to choose one, it would be the non floyd V sunburst.

 

[Beandust]

Don't quite understand the "re-invent the wheel" body shapes,I guess LP and Vs are not sharp enough.Zack played a Les Paul,nice body shape,this is for which generation?

 

[crankyrayhanky]

Does this mean from here on out he's going to play live with only these guitars? Ugggghhh not exactly a step up from LP Customs

 

[JackBootedThug]

$399? maybe.....999? fuck no....

 

[Mailman1971]

Pass......
and that says alot.
I love CHEEZY!
This is just not doing it.

Aside from the shape, the thing I found "interesting" was those HUGE pearl block inlays which pretty much cover up the whole fretboard, it's literally half ebony and half pearl board lol.

Built by bearded Chinese children. DNW

 

[sleewell2]

they look like complete and utter dog shit.

 

[Mailman1971]

Why is he no longer with Gibson again?
He get the boot or just walk?

 

[johnpace2]

Awful.

He probably didn't dig the richlite board.
I'd think he probably figured more money for him starting his own line of gear.

You can go first. Really. I'll let ya.

stupidest thing ive ever seen aside from one of his recent solos!

 

[sjk]

Those are freaking awesome!

 

[midnightlaundry]

I wanna smash them..

 

[ElectricVoodoo]

Wish we could have frozen the No More Tears era Zakk Wylde and he would be an icon. Everything after that he has gone downhill.

Agree. He was very influential back then. This is what it's become.

And then set the bits on fire with a smelly color vest..
