In before the Bigsby haters.

I dig it, but price is Kray-Zee!!

 

[Tig]

I'm not a fan of the binding, but love it otherwise.
Oh, dat neck! Chunky, flamed, and stainless medium jumbo frets.

 

[jelloman]

I find that shade of blue particularly repulsive...

 

[Guitar Heel]

Love the binding, and pretty much everything else.*

*except the Bigsby.

SMOKIN' HOT!!!!! drool0

 

[Dogsinplastic]

Usually have a thing about pickguardless Jazzmasters, but this one is pretty sweet. I wouldn't pay that kind of cash for it, but that a nice looking guitar Walter.

 

[Coralkong]

I like that.

Would prefer a different color, and it is a little pricey, but I like it.

 

[NothingClever]

Not a huge fan of the binding but nice looking guitar. Now that Doug posted that falc-shee every axe in the $3500 range must be on that level...for the price I would rather have a Kauer

Lose the damned Bigsby, pur some buckers in it and cut the price in half... I would be in.

I think I haven't seen a Red Rocket I didn't like. However, the price is a non-starter. At that price point I'm going to find a lot of guitars I like.

This, exactly.

 

[CBHScott]

While I like the overall idea, that piece just has so much wrong with it...the shade of blue top against a white background separated by a thick black binding just looks so off. I love the neck wood, but it looks really out-of-place against that body finish. And am I the only one that dislikes amp-style knobs on a guitar (easily remedied, but still...)?

OK, so I have softened (somewhat) on my overall Bigsby stance, but it just looks so wrong on this guitar.

Price reflect the Fralins, because they must be over $700.00 each, right?? rolleyes1

EDIT: Oops - the binding is checkered, and not black as I initially thought.

FAIL.

I love it. But calling $3450.00 a 'fraction of it's true worth' is laying it on a bit thick.

 

[Flatspotter]

Not keen on the color, or the binding, or the Bigsby, or the price, but other than that...

 

[Chad]

Great googely moogely that thing is smokin

Love the looks of it. Other than the price my only gripe (as with all Red Rockets)would be the B50.
If they are going to charge $3500 they could of put out the extra $50 for the B5.

 

[dougk]

Very pretty.

Though my flat top model with a bigs' is about a grand cheaper. Maybe I'm to cheap now? lol

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

how is a guitar named the Red Rocket painted blue? wtf?
