I have a really cool idea. Lets get the awsome admins here at
the Fender Forum to host the "Featured Fender Forum Player".
Maybe make it a sticky with a poll that we can vote on.
Where players here in the forum will post images & links to their song/music/playing or whatever.
Once a certain date passes... submissions close & then the admin turns on the poll with all submitted selections.
We all get a couple days to vote... then the winner & there link goes to the Featured Fender Forum Player Winners sticky.

I really think this will get more people to join the forum &
also enrich the environment here.
What do u think?

Sounds like a reasonable idea.

Edit:Thinking about it, the player could post in depth pics of their rigs as well and tell us all about themselves. Sounds good to me.

There are alot of us with music to present here...
I haven't mapped out the details but I do believe with everyone's
help we can come up with a suggestion that Brad & the guys may find agreeable.

Thoughts that come to mind:
1. Must be easy to administrate, & the main sticky for
entry should of course include the rules or guidelines.
  1. Rules like same player cannot win two times in a row
  2. Also, maybe only one player is featured... (there can be only one McCloud lol)
  3. No Prizes, just recognition in the sticky (while it lasts)
  4. I am not sure it should be monthly, maybe more like every 3 months?
  5. Only other 1 Featured Fender Forum player is previous winner.
    The rest fall off. (keeps it current, & also keeps the spot light simple)
  6. If two winners were allowed, maybe one bass player & one guitar player?

2. Need more ideas here...

Thanks for your opinion everyone!

I think it would be easiest just to do one a month, guitar or bass. Feature one person, let them post pics, explain their rigs, etc. No competition, just showing members of the community.

A few questions/suggestions :


Maybe only Fender gear should be used as this is *the* Fender Forum Lounge?

Who would be the judges?

Could it be a collaboration by Fender Forum members?

Can loops be used?

What about copyright infringement, maybe only original tunes?

It's a good idea, but I think that all of the issues need to be decided on and resolved.

Keep it as simple as possible...
There should be no judges, just us in the forum voting.
Thus the title, "Featured Fender Forum Player".
But I agree we need short, simple, & to the point submission guidelines.
I think Brad & them might have a better grasp on what is easiest there.
But as long as it qualifies... (of course no inappropriate material)
I also agree that some fender product must be in use to qualify.
Maybe have each submission disclose atleast 1 fender instrument or
amp used in the actual media being presented to qualify.
Also no submission is allowed to win twice?

I think that the copyright infringement issue is the biggest one to sort out if you're going to post cover tunes. :?:

Infringement? I don't think so...
We are not selling or making any money from this material.
It's really no different than the thousands of tribute bands u find on myspace.
