#20 guitar for me is a Robson black Strat clone that I picked up through Kijiji for 60 clams. Naturally, it's going to be a beater. Or a musical club. What the hey, I can have fun tinkering with it myself. I usually take new-to-me guitars to my luthier for a setup, but I don't think this one needs one yet. The whammy bar works, the neck looks straight to my blindish eyes, the action's right, the only small fly in the ointment being that it needs new strings, which is not an insurmountable obstacle. I've about half a dozen sets of new strings, anyway. Dunno how it sounds yet, but I'll get back when I get the new strings on and find out. Is Photobucket free? Danged if I want to spend money on anything but gear and necessities now. I'd love to show off some of my guitars and amps, though.

Yes, photobucket is free.

LOL! I DO have a pink Squier Stratocaster, but I shy away from Hello Kitty, even though I love cats. My Squier has been cosmetically augmented with a blackguard. I left the knobs and pup covers white. Looks pretty spiffy, if I say so myself.

What the hell? ^ that's MY guitar (or rather my daughters) LOL!
We did the re-branding on that one together years ago. She lost interest, so it's mine now I guess.

I like Flickr
Fewer ads than Photobucket
Faster load times too
Posting is a little trickier cuz there's more code than you need but it's not painful to crop the link once you get used to it

I get your point, but this instrument is rarely played. only when the recording bug hits me, and that is seldom these days.
...to busy filling orders.

I was actually referring to the possibility that someone broke into your house and took pictures of your guitar%h(*&, unbeknownst to you. Change Your Locks!!!!!

funny! I'm talking about locks last two days here, and via messages right now so they are top of mind for me.
I'm a member of far too many guitar forums, as I'm sure many of all y'alls are here too. I truly need to get a life.
