This one ^^^, and the one with the Les Paul in the middle of the two strats are awesome. They are my favorites so far. :D

Gang: I just got back from my vacation and am completely swamped, but ... I wanted to take a minute to share a few "Fender Lounge Forums Tee" pics that we snapped on the trip! As before, I am of course NOT eligible to win the giveaway, particularly considering that the giveaway prize is currently sitting under my own desk. LOL! :-)

Firstly, here's me and my stunningly lovely wife, Sue, in front of the Silver Bullet coaster at Knott's Berry Farm. Sue is better known as "AZ Sue" in these parts -- she's a busy real estate agent here in the Phoenix/Scottsdale/Fountain Hills areas, and suffice it to say that this vacation was as much of (if not more of!) a break for her as it was for me:

Image

Next up, here's 'Daddy' and 16-month-old daughter Ruby on the carousel at Knott's Berry Farm:

Image

Next, here's me at Torrey Pines State Beach -- the weather was PERFECT:

Image

And here's Sue, who got in the spirit and donned the "prototype" size XL forums tee; it fits her like a bed sheet, but she wanted to show her spirit. I need to order her a smaller one!

Image

Not pictured here is son Thomas, but he says 'hello'. :-)

Brad,

Welcome back! It sounds like you and the family had a great time! I used to live like 5 minutes from Knotts! lol Just a hop skip and a jump from old Fender Ave! Great pics and it is obvious that Ruby gets her good looks from Sue!

Welcome back buddy!

Thanks all. Actually it's a Tele w/maple neck behind the amps and beside the keyboard (cropped out). Kids, if you want to go on the road with a band or bands for about 25 years and you end up with cancer, this is what YOU might end up looking like...

I keed, I keed...but I will turn 57 in less than 6 weeks and I will try and get some better pics up in due time.

Actually It was my first impression that those were the grandchildren listening to "Popi's" reading of great-grandad's biography :P

......and if ain't 'Ol Slowhand' peeking out behind the cover up there in the right hand corner.

It also occurs to me that with all these hirsuit players out there, we'd like to put together a guitar orchestra and name it "The Smith Brothers.''(R)

Managed by "Trade" and "Mark"...that ought to make Fender feel really at home, those names appearing on everything they manufacture

Doc :wink:

Perhaps we'll see some of these regional members get together in that fashion!
Hang in there!

The Fender Forum Tees arrived yesterday, as I was driving up my dirt road, the Fedex Ground truck was following me.

Here are a few quick shots - it was a rainy day yesterday.
