The rule there has been that actual photos can be posted by admins only. This is due to a strict policy on original content which would otherwise be impossible to enforce.

However, any member can post a link, say, to a Photobucket or Flikr album. Clicking a link is no big deal, unless you're working with dial-up.

I kind of like the subdued nature of the corporate forum; I hope it doesn't totally reinvent itself. In any case I'm sure I'll continue to enjoy it.

No way !! surely you jest ?

I'm guessing it's going to be much the same as the current RIC forum, just using newer software such as phpBB, which is what this forum is based upon...

LOL Cassius, no I meant this, not you brother...

Well I have to admit I will never be as funny as that post was.

Yes you were brother, your comedic timeing and genius were inpecable, kudo's to you brother, take good care and stay safe..

On a serious note. do they still take orders for those listed? (what's the lead time 2 years or more?). Sure like the looks of Bigsby style 325 I have to say. Never have worked with a company that had that long of a back log. Would hate to be a dealer and have to keep up with deposits for that long. I wouldn't trust putting $$$ down with someone that could easily be long gone before you ever saw the product. Been there/done that. My policy is no longer than 30-45 days lead time since about 2008. Business is too weird these days and people are coming/going in big surprises at least in my neck of the woods & in my Audio/Video, Technology business I'm in anyway.

Just my 3.5 cents anyway.

Well, since they said they would stop taking orders at the end of the 2009 NAMM show, which was 2 years ago, I don't think so...
