    Mike, didn't you hear?  Barbi Twin pictures have been approved.

>    since pictures of Cindy Crawford in a bikini aren't exactly acceptable
>    with company policy
    
    I never saw a policy that prevented having photos of horses in your
    office.

    Cindi Crawford is a horse?  Dood, we HAVE to talk!!

    The dealers out here are giving away a Gibson poster.  Check a store
    near you...
    
    

    Greg said she has "thorobred" hips.  I said she's so hot her husband
    prefers gerbils.

    
    
      I have in my extensive collection a KittyHawk promo poster sent
    to me from LPMG. Unfortunately the delectable lady in the poster
    is a perch for a hawk on her arm (get it, KittyHawk) so it really
    isn't a Cindi Crawford style poster.
      On the other hand, I would love to get my hands on the original
    Rich Bich poster from BC Rich. A classic in its time.

       .. I just thought of this. What if the girl in the poster is
    LPMG's secretary from he!!. Scary thought there!

I have an original Dean poster which was cool enough that the valuing difference
police made me take it home from the office...

If you live in MA, Tewksbury Music had a stack of the Gibson posters
last time I was in.  There are 6 in the series and each one has a 
photo of 6 guitars (or basses) with all the facts & figures about
their configuration.  

When you put all 6 posters together, you end up with some pretty
impressive wallpaper.  ***CAUTION*** This may act as a sub-liminal
GTS stimulant!

Walls covered with pictures of gibsons would most likely make me only wish
to torpedo vomit...

now if they were PRS and stienbergers....and a stray ESP or two...

oh yeah :-)

    Gibson starts with an upper case 'G' young man........8)

    You know how these young pups are...

Young?? thanks but I turned 40 this year...

I WAS a dedicated gibson man once (lower case ha ha), then I became a dedicated
strat man, now I'm a dedicated 24 fret man, and I tend to like the newer stuff
rather than 30 year old designs that have never been improved...what can I say? 
At least I don't start note 'wars' because I feel like my taste is a law of 
nature and yours is deviant....:-) (a bunch of times)

    >>Young?? thanks but I turned 40 this year...
    
    yer welcome (yer still younger than me; barely)
    
    >>I WAS a dedicated gibson man once (lower case ha ha)
    
    I would think you would carry fond memories of that period

    Steve (who can *barely* cram his hand up high enuff on the Les paul to
    play the 16th thru 18th frets, but still LOVES the axe)

    >  I would think you would carry fond memories of that period...
    
    The memory is the first thing to go...

Yo Edd good one, made me chuckle...

fond memories? Of my SG 'rubberneck' that never stayed in tune long enough
to play an entire chord? That gibson's fix for was to run heavier gage strings?
"Yeah we put these Pete Townshend special extra heavies on it and it stays
in tune, what's your problem?" I remember this 18 year old who went bankrupt
saving up for that guitar...

Once in a great while I wish I had kept my les paul custom cherry sunburst,
but then I remember that my back can't take hours of carting a cinder block
around hanging off my neck by a strap :-) besides it had serious feedback
problems, needed potting on the pickups no doubt...

I'm am truely nostalgic about my strat ever since I got a very bogus fret job
and it's been rendered to a wallhanging status until I get it re-fretted 
again. 3rd times a charm though. After I saw Bryan Adams this spring I 
remembered everything I liked about strats, not beccause of Bryan but his
guitar player was emminently tasteful.

But I'll stick to my ESP/Stienberger combo for gigging, they work good for me

back to the poster discussion

I always liked the epiphone poster with the old granny on it,with a caption
of something about live well, ...play epiphone...that one was cool without any
cleavage...

>>not beccause of Bryan but his guitar player was emminently tasteful.
    
    yes, indeed!      

    Look for a Rickenbacker dealer and ask for one of the Rick posters.
    It has their entire product line on one side and a large picture of
    a Rick 6-string (like John Lennon played) on the opposite side.
    Cool poster.
