OK - this is bugging me now - how do I stick a large image in the body of the reply, rather than attaching an image at the end?

And I KNOW this is a stupid question!

Thanks!!

Post the picture on a hosting website, e.g. photobucket & get the url to it.

Coy/Paste the URL where you want it to appear in the message body with [ I M G ] before (minus the spaces) & [ / I M G ] after (again, minus the spaces)

If you want a clickable thumbnail (small pic) to open the full-size pic in a new window, you need the URL of the pic & the URL of the thumbnail:

[ u r l = url of main pic ] [ i m g ] url of thumbnail [ / i m g ] [ / u r l ]
(obviously, remove all the spaces again...)

this baby. Fat tone, nice high end, and perfectly balanced -- and the warpig in it makes it sound like the end of the world :). Only thing i have trouble with is the baseball bat neck hahahaha. Definately not a shredding guitar.



my maxon OD 808 really DOES make poop sound good

You probably could ask for a luthier sharp the neck a little... But it can change the tone (depending on how much of the wood you take off) how much thick is it?

Baseball bat neck eh?  I always assumed BC Rich guitars would have skinny necks.  I wonder if any of the other Mockingbird models have big necks?  :?

My 1982 mockingbird has a really nice neck, a bit like the original PRS neck (which is a little like the Wide/Flat but slightly fatter).
So many pickups, so little time

This is a bit unspectacular, as it's a budget guitar, but at this moment in time, although it's not inspiring me looks or brand wise, since it received a set of Rebel Yells with coil split, I cannot put down anymore my Korean make PRS Singlecut SE. It plays and sounds just so damn badass. I gotta remove that "SE" from the headstock though, it realy disturbs me :O)

But ask me next week and my Gibson SG, Special or MM Axis could have taken over the lead again ...

Ok guys, here is my entry... Vanquish Custom, made by Ade Hardman of Vanquish Guitars. Calibrated set of Bareknuckle Crawlers, mahogany body, maple top, tone-pros bridge, gotoh's, bone nut, push-push pots on both volume and tone, hi-pass filter, buzz-feitin, musictrak chip, oil and wax finish. This has replaced all the other guitars I used to use but was never totally happy with. Check Ade's guitars out, there should be a new website up very soon, which will also include the Oli Brown signature model.

this is mine!

it was hard to decide because i love (more or less) all my guitars... my ibanez sa2020 is maybe the most playable of them all, so there's was a bit of inner struggle (:))...
anyway my satin mahoganey topped classic antique les paul is soo special...  :)

i love how it sounds with the stock gibson classic 57 and 57 plus pickups, but i think i'll soon buy a set of mules for it!
Mule, MQ, Stockholm, CS, RY, MM, PK, ANB, CNB, AWP, CWP, PiG90...
