Has anyone ever heard of Devlin guitars www.shsaudio.com/devlin.htm sorry I couldn't get the link to work.

First time to see that name! The problem with these "unknown" brands is that you can't get them in any guitar store! So if you want one you'll probably have to order it from the maker himself!

I found a local store that carries them, and I am going to go check them out tommorrow. But I doubt it can measure up to the Deam razorback V I am currently saving up for.

Pretty cool paint job! $225 for the guitar with the skull or flames, if it's anything like in the pictures, just the graphics is worth it.

And like with all cheap guitars, if the pickups suck just change them. And to me it looks as if they managed to get the volume pot out of the way from the right hand, a +.

The guitar may be alright or it may suck, but either way it will look great on the wall.
My guess is that the "paint" is glued on to the wood and then varnished, so it's like a poster. To keep the costs down. Can't have Michelangelo (Batio) hand paint every guitar, that would show on the price tag.

I'd say it's a decal, and they put a few coats of lacquer over it.

I don't think they look too bad, but for the price, anyways.
