Kinda weak. The tiki on the wiggle stick looks cheep too. I know that in order to produce these kinda things in mass, there needs to be comprimises but if you're gonna do it, do it right. That Telecaster that Shag did last year for Fender was the way to do it. Koa wood, tiki inlays on the neck, graphics intigrated throughout the body, not just a sticker stuck on the guitar.
