Unless I were close enough to see the FMA symbol/text on the guitars, I'd have no idea what they were for. I'm kinda underwhelmed, especially as I get the impression that these are not "serious" guitars.
The plus side is that you could buy about 4 of these for the price of one Metalocalypse branded guitar

I'm getting the impression that there is no way to actually hook this thing up to a real amplifier or PA system. It has a headphone "mini-jack" which probably fit headphones or earbuds. and that's it LOL.
I think I'll stick with my Les Paul.

Oh, each guitar also has a standard amplifier jack.

hm...just one lonely humbucker, they used the space of the missing pick-ups to build in a speaker/mini-amp, which presumably isn't even good enough for serious practicing, and will eat batteries as hell. great decision... but i guess it's more an otaku merchandising and most of the buyers can/will never play it - so: meh.

I've got a Les Paul. :3 A Rickenbacker bass as well. (wouldn't it be something if it was a sky blue color?)

I use mine for recording. It's kind of a heavy guitar. I used to have a Fender (much lighter in weight) for when I did actual gigs where I had to stand for any length of time. I sold it a while back when I gave up performing live.
This Mustang guitar is cool looking, but I'm really put off by that tiny built in speaker. I'm imagining a tinny sound...
