It reminds me of the art booths they had at amusement parks when I was a kid where they took a piece of cardboard stock, attached it to a turntable type machine that spun it fast. You'd then squirt different colored paint on to it and the centrifugal force would create patterns similar to that.

Actually, I remember that Fender did a run like that in 2003, Splattercasters.

You must be bored today, or do you have Ground Hog Day syndrome?

God damn it... I'm not sure if I should laugh or be annoyed.

Also, the one time you posted the giant picture of Macho Man Randy Savage had me rolling for a couple hours at least.

Gone again. One of my posts went with him because I quoted one of his photos. Must have been Brad taking charge.

Those "splatter casters" used to be for sale everywhere. It seems that when production ceased, they became collector's items.

IMO those finishes are as ugly as a hat full of a-holes.
That includes the genuine/fake firestorms.
