Been Away for A While

[Graham65]

We'll, I'm just getting started again.
I'll be posting more in the future.
There's two more of each of these girls in storage right now, and this picture was taken about 5yrs ago.
4xVP790's and 4xVP750's in total
These were in my rotation for quite some time... until I found another MIJ wonderment. It seems that fender japan has come up with the MIJ junior collection... and I bought 1, then another, then 2more, and then 2 more, and finished with a beautiful blue+rosewood strat. Sorry for digressing.
I WILL POST MORE PICS OF the Vantage's soon.

Welcome back!!
I'm a big fan of the 750...

[Graham65]

Yes
Jorg, they're a great guitar.

IIRC, I thinks i may have one of these in Walnut, but i can't remember...

... getting up there in age, "Old but not obsolete" (Arnold Schwarzenegger-Terminator saga's)

I have been absurdly busy with work these last couple of years.

[Graham65]

Going to try and hang some pictures...
Anybody got any idea how to make an iPhone pic 200kb!!???

Glad to see you back!

I've used XnView for years. You can set the compression during editing or when converting.

If all you'll ever need to do is resize images they have a utility specifically for that.

I just bumped the max file size to 300KB as I upgraded the site's plan giving us 10GB of disk space.

Incidentally I still have my Vantage Ghost, one of the few I was smart enough to hang onto. I do miss the VSH-455.

Hi Crusty!!! Iirc I have 4 Ghosts. 2 of which are all oem , and the other 2 have minor aftermarket features. I'm pretty much incapable of playing much anymore as the inflammation is so bad these days, I'm seriously considering having a " living estate sale" I have something like 25 different Vantage Guitars in my collection and for what it's worth, I would rather just slowly and deliberately let them go.

One day soon I'll get a list and then I'll have a better idea of just what I have. In total though I'm pretty sure that my collection is near 40-45..? guitars in total.

Pics YAY!!!
Seriously, have you tried light resistance training? I have arthritis and my doc told me to exercise. I went back to see him a month later and I felt a lot better. He told me to exercise more, as much as I could do without hurting myself.
Now I do about 2-3 times a week just to stay ahead. I honestly have never felt better and my joints dont hurt.

[Graham65]

So am I to assume correctly that all those pictures ( albeit ) I could have done better, ended up in your hands.. hence why you said "pics yay !!"

[Jorg]

You said you were going to get a list of what you had so I was just trying to encourage you to post pics.

[Corsair]

G’day, mate… been a minute, eh?!

Please post them pics, bro - I’d surely love to see ‘em!

Whereabouts are you located, chap? (Just asking in case there’s a future sale in the offereing!! )
