FEAST YER EYES on this lovely collection of craptacular electric guitars from the 1972 Sears Catalog.

You don’t need to adjust the intonation, kid… it’s built perfect outta the factory, see?

At least guitars 3 and 4 try to pay homage to the originals.  I think Telecrapter “2” has the pickup where it is because it looked the best there.  You will sometimes hear the old timers talk about how even the cheap guitars of today are so much better than they used to be.  Look at a Squier Bullet for around a hundred bucks, then look at these.  If you convert the 1972 dollar to 2013, that crappy SG copy would cost $446.

Of course the irony is that some chuckleheads are willing to pay big bucks for these old crappy guitars now.  Trust me, you do not want any part of this unless you’re building a guitar museum.
