[Blodstyre]

back in its time, the RD is known as the ugly duckling...

That was back in its time. So as for now, should it be just called ugly?



meh

 

[trianglebiscuit]

dont be hating on the sexy beast that is the gibson RD.

 

[keithC]

somehow, strangely, the bass looks wicked...
UD is ugly duckling. RD is rotten duckling.

 

[Crawldaddy]

Hmm.

In all honesty I don't think I'd dig a guitar that has a body shape which seems to be lifted from a combination of other guitar models:

Lower left bout (near picking elbow): lifted from a mockingbird.
Lower right bout and upper right bout: lifted from a firebird bass.
Right-hand lower horn; lifted from a Les Paul / SG but with strat pickguard style???

But I suppose it'd look a decent punk guitar once you're done sticking on all the bumper stickers etc.

hmm... strange... I thought many ppl will be interested in this reissue model. a real vintage one is quite rare to come across too.
