there have been a fair number of review of these. might want to search those, as they are not 100% positive.

but ... it does look cool.

Totally not my style, but interesting design.

I like the style with the Aum/Om design, not sure about the scaffolding internals, but it is quite cool.
Spiritual logo's on a guitar is always cool. 8)

I think that they should NOT use Hindu spiritual symbols on such a thing as a guitar trussrod cover. So, its not a cool design, its just a stupid thought on part of someone, who does not know the significance of this sacred symbol.

I just wonder why people misuse Hindu ideas when they don't have even an iota of knowledge about what they are doing. There are a thousand many other ways to make a guitar look cool.

i'd be afraid of jacking my hand up on one of the edges. i have no idea how that sounds, but i seriously doubt it was built with sonic properties in mind. plus it's sort of ugly as hell.

agreed, but to be honest the only thing that guitar has going for it is the Om.

to me feel and sound are all that matter.
a crappy guitar with a fantastic artistic design is like a junky car with $4000 rims imo.
but hey, to each his/her own. :mrgreen:

Until you ask the designer, I don't think you can rule out that they may know exactly what the symbols mean, and included them for some personal, faith-based reason. Christian symbols often are found on profane items such as guitars to proclaim a person's beliefs. While not a thing I personally care to see, I do understand the motivation.

Without any intention of starting a heated argument, I ask in curiousity: Does Hindu expressly forbid such use of its symbols on non-religious items? Or is knowledgeable use acceptable?
