Guys, to post an image, you have to upload it to another site (I.e. Facebook, flickr, photo bucket, whatever) and then use the "img" button on. The middle right at the top of the reply box. Click at button, paste in your image URL, and it will show up.

Welcome to the forum, I'm new here, too, been good reading!

Hello guys and Welcome to the Forum.
To put photos on here You have to use something like photobucket. Go to "photobucket.com" the one that says "free image hosting and image sharing" or something to that effect. IYou will have to get an account, set up with email address and a password. You upload your pics to photobucket. After doing so you can get "image codes" there will be a box under the pic with html codes, image codes, and some more codes. You simply copy the image code and paste it here in the message box. BTW photobucket is free. Good luck with it.

Go to Photobucket, click on the photo you want to upload. Several codes will be on the right of the photo. Click once on the last code "IMG". It will automatically be copied. As you're posting in the forum, put your cursor where you want the photo and hit control-V. Walla, your photo appears.

hey thanx guys! really love this guitar! love the versatlity of having the single coils to play the "blues" while also having that "bad $@!" humbucker in the bridge position for creating those "crunchier" tones! plus i love the nitrocellulose finish it gives it a more "worn in" look! rock on!

Got the same one!! And I LOVE it!!
I did have to swap out the pickups though.....as I thought they were HORRIBLE!!
I put in 2 Fender Vintage Noiseless and a Gibson 490T.

You have to hear this thing now!!! It is a TONE MONSTER!!

They call it the "Hot Rod" of the Strats because of it's inherent possibilities...NOT because of the sub-par stock pickups...that's for sure!!

Like I've always said....the Highways are an excellent platform for building your DREAM GUITAR!!

I have here...7 of my DREAM GUITARS!! ALL done up to my specs....new pups, tuners, and saddles! The possibilities are far and wide!

Heck...I've even went out and got a new American Special HSS (which we all know, aside from the Texas Specials, are essentially poly coated Highways anyway!!) which is in the process of being transformed.

Thanks!!


That....I am crazy enolugh to say...is the ENTIRE color spectrum of the Highway One HSS series! It took me some time to find all the finishes....but I got 'em!
These all have premium pickups and ALL sound different!

And I forgot one....this is a F.S.R Highway One....it's flat black like my other one.....BUT it's got a painted matching headstock with a 'spaghetti' logo!
