There's something about those wild pick guard control plates that gets me interested. Very Asian design ideas. Exagerated. To me they are beautiful. And those funky pups bark. I've got some mighty beat up but still running pups.

hell     yeah  ..  free  makes  it  alll  better  ;-)

  but  like  i  said  ..  they are growing on   me  .. im  starting to  accept them   as   vintage coolness .  dave   just picked up  one a while ago  and  did a   sweet mod  on it  .

I could kinda see where he was comin' from,but a free guitar is a free guitar & they don't come along every day. the walls are adorned with the "holy grail" of vintage american guitars that fetch high $$$$ in da store,MIJ's are like chump change to him, although he does sell quite a few MIJ's.who am I to refuse free?

them  swirly   patterns   etc are  just too   "prince  "  for  some  i  think .

its  like the chic   car   of  guitars   ;-)

Comment by Barry Potter on March 14, 2013 at 11:09am
Why do people think its Ugly!!!??? Too ugly to sell? I guess it subjective like everything else in the world. I think they have a cool classic 50's 60's retro vibe to em. Id buy one for the right price in a heart beat man. Cool git Brian.

yup   def a  zen-on ,, i  always thought they  were  kinda  ugly too myself  ,  but    they are growing on me  .

i think  thats  the  zen-on stamped     pup  too   ,,    they  have a    rare   sawtooth   pup   on a few  models  ..   and  i   want   one of them

Here's a Zen-on I keep forgetting about, it's so buried beneath my other guitars that I keep forgetting about it! this guitar was given to me for free by an owner of a used guitars shop,said it was too ugly to sell & also missing parts that I luckily have found over the past three years,I think it's time to get dis' ball a rollin'?
