They're all cool... but I'm an Android geek. Here's my case - greater variety of hardware on the software platform.  I can get many types of phone, small or full size tablets, not just a choice of one or two from each class of hardware. Granted Apple's harware is usually very good, but... I...

Mmmmm fresh meat......

Dang,  a runaway winner.... hoooooleeeeeeecrap. Very tasty there Fat Pete. 

WTG Cagey!~ Yours was my choice #2..... something about those white covers on the back made me reconsider it from being my vote..... but holy crap the top is nice!~ pssssssst.... brown covers like a LP!!!

maybe he went over to his uncles house to shoot the picture...... or maybe it was just some unsuspecting neighbor....

Holy crap... I can't decide.  I just hate to get nit-picky to make a decision..... this is the best group of instruments in one month that I can remember - ever!

Red is the worst.... Old Gibson guitars would go from cherry sunburst to tobacoo burst damn near - as red fades to brown.  Old Cherry SG's are now brown... The old dyes and colors were not very light fast at all.  Then again - old daphne blue Fender guitars are very green, as also are the Lake...

That was a crafty fix that workes with some tuners.... but for others leaves a pretty big "boink" thats visible. Let me modify the train of thought a little.... You can get small steel tubing - old AC units, brake line, any old steel tubing.  I've used brass too, but... you have to go a lot...

Hard to vote with no Telecasters in the line-up. :laughing7:

To me, spalted always begs for tobacco burst... while burl begs for an easy yellow red brown burst - like the old LP's that had burl tops on occasion.... but... but... the yellow red brown has to have a not too vivid yellow, and not too vivid red. and not too wide on brown... has to be a nice...

Just found out that Ray passed away.  I'm deeply saddened.  Nothing more to say

Just an fyi... votes are IP verified - the contest has been thru that scenario before.

No..... the December GotM is for past runners up, but we don't give 'em monthly recognition.... no "honorable mention".  I suppose thats good though...  that way they keep on gettin' entered.

I dont get to post much, but holy crap... I can't decide.  Might as well throw a dart and see which it hits.... I cannot remember a month like this... too many fantastic entries. I leaning towards... oh that would be telling.... Too bad we don't runner up recognition

Methelne cloride will melt the dotd really fast.

Leo was a genius for straightforward simplicity based on his one predominant character trait:  He was a really cheap son-of-a-bitch.  All those terrible bridges are still used today, in one form or another.  They were cheap.  And they must have done something right, since nothing succeeds like...

That looks like a Gibson Trini Lopez in a weird sort of way

Leo Fender developed the nail scraper method. 

I did the math once... if your low E is set to about 4/64ths and you high E is set to about 3.5/64ths, your going to be about .5/64ths high at the D and G. I tend to notice that, but others... I dunno... depends on the player.  The fix is easy, just file the saddle top a little, re-notch...

I personally do it in (aaak!!!) Photoshop The hard way maybe, but I've got a grid (that I can turn off) and have made up symbols that I import, keep on the side for copy/paste where I need 'em. Perhaps not the best way... but... you can squish down layers and then turn on or off layers, put...
