Great photos, everyone. Keep 'em coming.

They're almost as cool as having both Ted Staberow AND Chris Pappas posting on the Forum again! 'Ello lads! :mrgreen:

Metin, I will always regret not buying that V63 when it was available. :cry: I only hope that another comes along soon!

Hey Trotty, I recently saw some Youtube vids featuring you and Howard on guitars. Great stuff! Of course you could not resist the urge to slip in behind the drum kit too. :)

Let me check the calendar . . . no, it's definitely 2009, but with Jim Glen, Dave Pascoe, Ted Staberow, and Chris Pappas on board I would swear it's 2005 again! Great to "see" you all again.

Thanks Paul,
It's definitely nice to be back.

V63's have a Siren call all of their own, very very alluring !

And here's a pic of my 1992 FG V63 formerly owned by Jim Glen. Haven't got around to taking any good pics of it yet. I used the V63 as a size reference in this pic when I was trying to sell my big ol' Cerwin Vega:

I'm not as enthralled with my V63's as some here. I find that my 4003S's are superior in tone and playability. I like the way the V63's look so I keep trying, but so far the ugly duckling wins!
