New Year's Eve/Day compo

TTony

We're thinking about a quick compo ... "best guitar pic of 2013".

You post a photo (that you took and own all the rights to!) that you've taken of a guitar in 2013.  Preferably one of your guitars.  Just one photo entry per person.

We (admin team) will incur the total wrath of the many by each picking our favourite 4 photos.  As there's 3 of us, that'll be 12 photos.

You (everyone) then vote for your favourite.

The winner will receive a canvas of their photo, courtesy of theFB funds.  So, the photo will need to be available in reasonably high res.

All 12 photos will then appear in theFB 2013 calendar ... which you'll be able to buy!

Should we?  Shouldn't we?

Timings:  Post your pic by end of tomorrow (NYD).  Voting then opens (we'll do a poll) and concludes by end of Sunday.  

@monquixote @digitalscream - be ready to pick 4 pics each.  I'll fund the canvas for the winner personally, so any funds generated from the calendar sale will all go to theFB balances.

A touch against the usual tide of electrics, but here's my Admira:

I have higher res available if it's needed.

Both now gone to the great GAS fund in the sky, but a pair of lookers in their day...

Here is my partscaster Tele; simple and blond just like a good calendar photo should be. PS: I hope it will be a 2014 calendar (probably blown my chances of being amongst the winners!)

I took this as a studio warming gift for a friend of ours.  My only guitar photo of 2013.  It's my workhorse Beck Strat which virtually lived at their place for a summer of recording -

I really hope those knobs are real and not faux-shop?

Here's "my" beloved Lowden 035. Now sadly gone....by sadly I mean I was stupid enough to sell it, and I mean really really stupid. A glorious instrument to my eyes and ears, matched only by my gormlessness in the trading of it. Ho bloody hum  X_X

TTony

Some great pics so far.

I take that as a "yes, let's do it" answer!!

Yes, let's do it... )

I will buy a calendar!  Is it OK if my daughter takes a pic for me?  Hers are so much better(and I'll still buy a calendar).

Absolutely!

Here's the SG tribute I built earlier this year for Pete our old-gits-band's bassist.  Without much doubt the prettiest I've done so far...so presumably downhill all the way from here
