I actually don’t mind that one. Guess one man’s turnoff is another man’s porn. For instance, don’t get me started on those Danelectro longhorns.

The Danelectro Longhorn isn’t ugly - it just needs to be seen in the proper context.

" Krapmeister Kevin Siebold relays the philosophy that guides our efforts:

Our instruments are built for frugal people who aren’t very concerned with regard to quality, construction, materials, or safety.

The instruments are crafted from whatever we find suitable. Pedigree of wood is not a priority for us. We might get it from a local hardware store, or use some old shipping crates, or skids. Who knows??!!

If you are intrigued enough to purchase, we will provide you with a complete history for your instrument. The history might be akin to this:

Wood : leftover 2x4 from a construction site.

Strings : used about 3 years ago on an old guitar.

Pickups : some buncha crap we snagged from some guy.

Electronics : whatever we can scrounge up!

Our warranty: There is no warranty, expressed or implied.
We fully acknowledge our product is crap, and your purchase signifies that you have entered into an agreement to buy a product that is lacking in quality, contains poor materials, and is worthy of much abuse and destruction. We will in no way provide any customer service, so don’t even waste your time!!!"
