I have a TV and I have never seen the infomercial or heard of it, so can someone just tell me?

RT, think SRV with less chops, and a whole lot of playing House of the Rising Sun by a guy with a Zorro look going on and bad fingernails. It's really not HIM that sucks its the shitty guitars he puts his name to.

Check out the first one, those people tear those guitars up, its funny. Those things sound fuckin awful
This is the best
My daughter bought it and I played it once.
She played it for a couple weeks. Then one
day I arrived home from work and there it was
hanging from a tree limb minus strings. She got so
ticked off with various problems that she decided
to turn it into a bird house.
So far after 6 weeks in the tree no birds have moved
in, but there is bird crap all over it.

Dude, exactly.

I can't dis SRV and say that Esteban has a SRV hat, he's got a sort of SRV hat but defin. with the lame qualities of a Zorro type hat.

:lol:

Either way the guitars he pawns are shit.

That's one of my fave's too. It's not like only a few people hate those cigar box guitars, TONS of folks hate them and LOATHE Esteban.

I like what this part of a guys review:

Action, Fit, & Finish: 1 (rating)
"Fit and finish stink. The neck is all warped and twisted. Esteban ought to be forced to play one of these crappy guitars at his next concert."

It just made me visualize Esteban actually playing one on stage and having it break up :lol: Or... maybe it's only funny because it's 2 a.m. and I am very tired...
