G&L Spalted maple legacy - custom creations 100 made

Post by Dr B »

Dear All

I have been trying to follow the instructions for posting pics - but for some reason it does not like the hosting site I use. Ah well, here are some URLs. I've also registered for the gallery and the pics are there are well. Let me know your thoughts.

These are some pics of the USA Spalted maple Legacy (a nice example of the spalting I think)

and this is my Tribute series (Indonesia) Asat classic in 3-tone sunburst with maple neck.

That is an awesome looking Legacy - the black pickguard really makes the grain stand out. I like it alot :thumbup:

I have been using photobucket to host the pics, and i have been exporting them from iphoto with the size restrictions already in place. Once they are on photobucket the one click copy is supper fast and easy to use, and I have not had any problems having them show up in posts.

Thanks for the tips Scott.

That 4shared site is unpredictable at times and I am not happy with it. I have some sounds clips on there from my E-band and sometimes they play, sometime not, sometimes they lock up, etc. So I guess i need a new multi-source hosting site. :thumbup:

Glad you like the legacy, its even better in the flesh and I've been walking around with a huge smile on my face since it came.

To use the inline image BBCodes, the image_url needs to be to the actual jpg file.

For example, using the timage= BBCode:

Code: Select all

[timage="520,600"]http://dc395.4shared.com/img/KoW6L5yq/s7/DSC_6239_1000.jpg[/timage]
Here's the picture:

Hope this helps.

BTW, that is an awesome top!!! :thumbup:

I did not really think spalted maple would look good on anything... :shocked003: I stand corrected, that is one fine guitar.

I was hoping you'd post a larger picture of that guitar. It looks amazing, easily one of the nicest I've seen. :luv:

That is the most awesome spalted top guitar I have ever seen. If you ever decide to part with that one call me first. I feel a little envy creeping in.

Beautiful legacy! 8-)

I use http://WWW.Tinypic.com to store the guitar photos I want to post. Simple to join & use. I don't like their editor though so I edit my photos to the correct size before posting. Here's one:

Your Spalted Maple Legacy is amazing. That has to be one of the top 10 in the list of beautiful guitars I have ever seen. Just amazing. Don't ever sell it. It needs to be put in your will to be donated to a museum once you keel over.
