Whoops, whoops, whoops. Recently we've had a couple instances of photos posted of hand-made "copies" of guitars (both Fender-esque instruments and instruments clearly modeled after flagship models of other brands) -- and even worse, said posts were accompanied with a bit of denigrating verbiage about said brands.

Now, I know the poster in question intended absolutely no harm but for us this creates Instant Legal Liability: just add water and watch it grow and fester. :-) In other words: no, no, no. Please notify me (ForumAdmin AT fender.com) if you ever observe posts of this nature in the future.

As far as discussion of other brands is concerned: we're pretty flexible but a good general rule of thumb is that if you wouldn't submit the post or photo to that brand's official forum, you shouldn't submit it here either.

OK, Annoying Forum Moderator Guy signing off -- I'll hand the mic back to ya'll now. :-)
