what do you think about how this guitar looks?

Bingo. I couldn't put my finger on it, but this is it.

OK as it is, add a glossy finish and I'd like it. The bigger issue, however, hasn't been addressed. How does it play and sound ?

+1, Ditto and Amen!

It "might" sound good but the grain in that top flies in the face of everything I've read or heard about what makes a good sounding top. Obvious case of YMMV.

I love it - it reminds me of cowboys and leather saddles and the old west. Absolutely love it!

[DesertTwang]

I want one! What is this?

Reminds me of my brain the next morning as a result of too much of a good time.

Wondered when someone would ask that... I met a guy a couple of months ago who had made a guitar out of particle board. It looked... crazy. He handed it to me and invited me to give it a strum or two. Have to say; it sounded very good. And I don't mean 'good for particleboard'.

I kinda like this one, too. Would love to know more about it from the OP

Do not adjust your set! That is not my " tasse de the " at all.

No thanks. Sort of reminds me of the plywood tops that old Harmony guitars are supposed to have been made from.

I kind of like it........... It would grow on me if it played and sounded good/great

[Purfle Haze]

I like it. I think the rosette is perfect for the guitar.

If it sounds good, I like it more. If it has a great story, I like it more still. If Neil Young plays it, I love it. If EC signs the label and it is sold at GC, it is a bold new statement and they'll be gone before I get one.

I think that what is acceptable in an acoustic guitar is very narrow for most.

For some reason it reminds me of a huge and very cheesy wagon wheel coffee table my aunt had when I was growing up. Is that even real wood? It looks like plastic, with an exaggerated wood grain mold...

Great for planting flowers in.

What am i missing, I don't see no stinking guitar.
All I see is recently completed Scooby Doo ?

This is what I was thinking too. If Eric Clapton or Leo Kottke played one on stage, or if it was made by Ervin Somogyi, everyone would want one.

I still think it's pretty cool looking!
