I have mixed feeling about this one. It's a big no, not for me but, I'm so happy it exists.
 
It's a neat effect of the sunburst over mother of toilet seat, mesmerizing.

But there is a lot going on.
 
I almost kinda don't hate it...until I look at the price, and that definitely pushes me into hate territory.
 
Looks like it's been carved out of the finest piano accordion. It's not to my taste, but I don't hate it. Like Bob411, I'm happy for someone else to enjoy it.
 
I'd prefer a more rudimentary finish. On my screen it looks like an early and way over the top CGI explosion.
 
Having 22 frets and a 6 saddle bridge are my preference. The finish is well over the top but I like it. Price is ridiculous however.

I do try to let other people have their happy. Enjoy music that I don't care for, etc.. But this is different. I'm not sure how to explain it. I hate it but, there is something about it, no idea what, that I love.
