Okay, so that wasn't me. But for a while I thought it'd be kind of cool to be in a band and have hair like Robert Smith so snobby, goth-lite, art major chicks would go out with me which is almost as bad.
Not a fan of Fender personally, but they usually have a great tone, and lets be honest, it's a classic. Pretty much every guitar since has meen modelled after it.
That guitar kind of matches how his hair flares up on the sides. To be honest he kind of looks like Mister Sinister tried to crossbreed McCaulay Culkin and Wolverine on top of his noggin.
I had one friend in high school, football team, that went beyond a standard buzz cut by getting "V"'s carved into the back of his head, like a "victory grill". The next day we were with him in the lunch line and the lunch lady took one look at him and told him, "that looks stupid!" Nothing knocks you off your peg in the social order quite like being dissed by a 60 year old overweight woman in a hair net.
