Any photos of the Charcoal Frost Jag fully functional??
No... I did the refin and sold it just like you see it. It went to the UK for like $550... case and all.

That was the famous '67 13 piece body that I've posted pics of here! I matched it with a mutt '65 neck and an aftermarket guard.

I think there's a pic in there of it with a bound neck and case.

two points...

1.  Doug  ..  do your neighbours thinks you are strange because you always take "porno" shots of guitars by your pool or on the jetty ?

2.  If we are talking numbers of how many I'd want ...  put me down for 7 calendars
relaxing alternative to doing actual work ...

I'd love to say that this calendar will be available before the New Year. Unfortunately work commitments have hampered that somewhat.

As I've said before, all pictures are welcome - originals only as scaled down pics end up looking ropey when you enlarge them.

The idea of having 12 Offsets for the 12 months ain't gonna happen either.

For a start, no one has a Marauder & I'm not gonna just use the pics available (as much as I love 'em), this is about the OSG site. All pictures will be guitars that WE own.

Does anyone own a Maverick???

Eupat, sorry I haven't PM'ed you already. You da Swinger man (I don't mean that sexually). Any pics would be welcome.

So far I reckon the definites are.....

Lalalndstudio's Blonde Jazzmaster.
Luau's Mustangs.
DB's Bass V's. (PM coming your way).

Maybe's......

Mjet260's Starcaster. Doesn't someone else own one (Mez?) This aint a fight, I could easily include 2 guitars in the same page!!
Zhivago's XII (probably the picture I've used already - JM & XII body close-up). Again, does no one else own a XII???
There are a few VI's to choose from but not many nominations.

Missing......

The ones I haven't mentioned, particularly the Jaguar (thats gonna be a hard one).
Also the VI's. There's loads out there. I pictured a couple before (Tsalwel, get out your ball of rusty barbed wire!!)


??? EDIT - Did I mention the VI's ??!?  :D

ollenorin has an almost mint condition sunburst starcaster IIRC.

You could include a Jazzblaster (eupats' lovely, but there are more among us - mine's not finished) - it's not a original Fender, but it's not a Fender calendar you're making  ;)
Someone knows where I can find the nearest woodchipper to throw my pieces of junk into?

OK. I kinda like the layout now.....

Image

...thanks Luau for the hi-res pics. I think it looks pretty good.

The font still ain't right though. That capital J is horrible. Any suggestions (I quite like the funky, psych style but could probably use something different).

I'll stick in some info, probably in a long, thin strip down the bottom (copyright, www address, photograph supplier - name or nickname...whatever).




Also, get out your Jaguars folks!!!! I need something to rival the Blonde JM.

You might know it as a Fender Custom.

There're pictures here somewhere I just can't be bothered finding them.

By the way.

I'm thinking that any gaps will be filled with extra pictures of Jazzmasters, Jaguars or Mustangs.

Purely cos they're my favourites.  ;)


Therefore, keep sending those pictures. I'm particularly keen on a 64 or 65 Mustang.
