Trump Guitar

New Guitar Day? Obsessed with tone? 10 on the volume dial not enough? Celestion vs. Electrovoice? Cum in, feel the noize.

EDIT: Just looked at the site for Hembry Guitars who made that Explorer shape with the nazi shit on it. They've even got some Iron Cross guitars on their website. No actual swastikas though.
Hallmark guitars, who makes the best Mosrite clones in existence, has an Iron Cross guitar.

It's a nod to a famous hot rod but some people see it as problematic.

Well... seeing as this company appear to have made a guitar with a fucking swastika on it, it makes their Iron Cross seem way more nazified.

I love it when people try to explain a swastika as some ancient buddhist symbol of peace or some shit. That may be true historically but come on. :lollers2:

"Are you a Buddhist? A Hindu? Then it seems like you're probably just using it for nazi reasons!"

I also love the idea that the iron cross guitar is "red baron" themed. "No, see, we're celebrating the era of German militarism and aggression before WW2. It's no worse than if we made a war on terror guitar, right?"
