maybe it is JUST too ugly for the general public?

There was an all white one for sale about 4 - 6 months back and I almost scored it from Capitol Guitars but a member on here beat me to it and then offered it up for trade or sale like a week afterwards.

Here is the thread...

I wanted it so bad but my stuff isn't made of gold if you know what I mean

I think when someone changed the bottom front horn to a kelly shape,the "Death Kelly" it is much more desirable looking , IMHO.

I always dug that shape, Rob created it with the Custom Shop in like 89' or 90' but I think its only a Custom Shop option, if they made a mass produced version I'd dig it but I don't think Death Angel is a huge name so it probably wouldn't do well. Just my thoughts.
P.S. The Black and White one is an ode to his original Jackson which was a Black/white Star, both are cool.

i like the body. i hate how most of his have that black edge to them. with the right layout the body can be killer

but i do think the lower horn should be longer and curl in like the top wing.
Death Angel just wasnt as big a name as someone else said.

yes, the "death kelly' is awesome.

Agreed

what happened? The three people that would actually pay for one had the CS build them one. And no one else really cared.

[BLOOD SPLATTER]

Uhhmm....I'd pay for one....& didn't order a CS....so....yeah!!
