Everybody has their favorite brand of guitar, but the list of horrible and uncool guitars is worth putting together.  These would be the guitars you wouldn't play even if someone gave them to you for free.  I'll kick it off with one acoustic and one electric - an Ovation and a B.C. Rich.  Truly awful.

the Parker Fly is easily the uncoolest guitar in rock n roll.

 

I have an Ovation acoustic. Not that model, one with a regular round soundhole. It's my knockabout guitar, the one I leave out to play when I feel like grabbing one quick. 

The Parker Fly? Great player, smoothest whammy bar ever. I only played one, one time, but it was pretty cool, I thought. 

BC Rich? Wouldn't touch it with latex gloves.

I'm with you on this, BC Rich guitars were/are some ugly and uncool monstrosities.  The epitome of cheesy metal posery.

Whoa! that BC Rich reminds me of someone I know who is not cool at all....I'd have to concur!

This is really ugly! and what's with the Handle???

Now we're on to something John.  That's hideous!

Waveclipper, you've raised the bar. It's an uncool guitar with excessive unnecessary features.

Haha! Like the guy playing it (only kidding Mr Batio!)

I've actually played BC Rich's that were quite good instruments (at what they do) albeit awful looking things and those JEM thingies sure play super fast but sound super terrible.

Lets face it, all ya really need is vol/tone controls and nothing beats a well set up Bigsby if you're fond of wiggle sticks...

What about this baby?

Yes!  A Hohner copy of the horrible Steinberger bass.  Extremely uncool.
