It's a midi equipped guitar that Ibanez used to build for Roland IIRC ? The silly rod on the top was to stabilise the neck so that the tuning was more stable, which I think made it easier for the midi pickup to read...I got to play one once and I thought it was super cool, like trying to race in F1 with a truck...

I have to stop looking at this thread. I've gone from amused to horrified to losing faith in humanity.
And I feel nauseous.

And this one! Apart from it being fugly in all other respects as well, is it just me or is there some sort of mismatch between the number of tuners on the headstock and the bridge?

From what I understand of what was being said where I saw it posted apparently this was standard from Gibson for Bigsby equipped Vs...

In the closeup I saw of it's bridge it was strung as a six string with only one double coarse on the low E...

On another forum I'm on they have a thread devoted to horrible guitars, I've literally just been pulling these across ?

This thread was very appropriately kicked off with a Firebird X but I don't recall these having been posted yet, Gibson's ultimate contr-axe-ceptives, the natural-disaster-inspired-finish Firebird X:

Truthfully it's not the worst guitar in the thread or anything, I posted that V more because of how funny their way of attaching the Bigsby was than any actual aesthetic issues ?

Ugly 8 string? :-[

Jack-Flash-Jr

Yes.
