    This German Luthier makes really nice looking (and according to Paul McArtney, real QUALITY) guitars ... electric, acoustic and basses.

    I am just wondering what this learned group's collective knowledge is on Andreas ****z guitars? Besides all the remarks we could make about the name ... I hear tell Sir Paul got a big kick out of the name. But loved the guitars.

    Anyone have info on these? Or, better yet ... experience playing one?

    Edit : the name was bleeped ... it is, and I am serious, this is no goof moderators ... C u n t z Guitars
    UGH!! Even the link is being bleeped

    The website is: http://www.****z-guitars.com UGH ... you know what letters to type in LOL

    There are certain times when it's better to not name the company after yourself. I hope he's not putting that on the headstock if he wants to sell any in the USA.

    Ok, we all agree the gentleman in question would have been better served by changing the name (and YES, he puts THE name on the headstock)

    But does anyone here know about these from a QUALITY point of view? I am seriously considering buying one his acoustics ... they are REALLY stunning looking. Thanks all!

    I good setup would be a c u nt z and a Super Hard On, into a Fuchs or a Balls amp, maybe a Big Muff for leads...



    Where can I find a new c u n t z....I see lots of heavily used ones, even some relics at dive bars...but I want a new one that has'nt been played to death.







    :D .....I know...I couldn't help it.
