Looks great!
I see the FG V63 has a dot at the 19th fret. What's up with that?

Yup, a renegade, apparently. My theory is that a 4003S board got mixed in with the V63 boards at assembly. Unusual, but probably not unique.

Chris, you can order the poster through my website.
Right now, I'm waiting to hear back from Hal Leonard/Backbeat about solutions to a software compatibility problem we have. I've been building the books pages with Pages, a consumer-level page-making program which works great. Except they publish their books with InDesign, a professional-level publishing software, and the two programs will not talk with each other. In all likelihood, I will have to rebuild the book with InDesign which I hope to accomplish with the assistance of the graphic designer who helped me with the poster, book covers, and website. I figure I will have to either have her rebuild the pages, or learn to do it myself (shouldn't be too hard). I want to avoid having to shell out for the full suite InDesign software and would rather pay her for her time with me on her computer. I think once we make a series of page templates, we should be able to bang out eight to ten pages an hour easy (if it goes as I suspect). The other alternative is to hand over the book's text in Word and all the photos and let HL/BB design the book. That's not what I want. I've built more than 90 pages now, and I'm still waiting on a few photo contributions and the remainder of Ted Staberow's "anatomy" series. Still looking at completion this calendar year with publication in 2012. If Hal Leonard/Backbeat publishes it, you should have no problems locating a copy as it will be in bookstores, online, and on Amazon.
