Sparrow Rat Rod

Anyone rate these guitars? I only know about them because of ads placed on my Facebook page.

Sparrow Guitar Co.

I'd post pictures, but their pictures hosted on Flickr don't allow for easy posting. On their site, they've got close-ups which are more to showcase the paintjob. Otherwise they only have modular mock-up pictures of the guitars on their site.

Well they look cool. Seem to be popular with punk bands...

Do nothing for me, copies with tattoos.

They aren't that bad, but why can't companies make up their own designs for guitars?

because perfection was achieved in the 50's why mess with the formula.

Those seem pretty cool, you could do a few things with them you wouldnt dare do to a Gibson Gold Top or burst. Definitely of interest.

Yeah, I would agree with that if it was Gibson that is using the same formula they created. Now you just have a bunch of knock offs. Be original...
