...and now it's the UGLY Dragon Strat

This is one seriously ugly Strat. The seller claims that it is "hand-crafted" and "made with all-American Fender parts". I don't care. It's gross. The textured and patterned scratchplate looks bad enough, but what's the deal with the stuck-on dragon "carving" which I can only assume they copied from the much more tasteful Aria Dragon Strat? And why is the "carving" coloured black so that it looks like an oil slick? If you check the photos on the linked page, you'll see it also has skull-shaped strap buttons. Can I say "gross" again?

This guitar was put together by someone with absolutely no idea of taste or aesthetics. Vile.
