Title: Vintage Guitar Ads
Post by: mica on January 20, 2014, 07:55:09 PM

I've had to collect up all my ads to make sure I select a balanced group of our work. I figured that would be a great page to share since they look even nicer in a big mass.
 
 Vintage Guitar Ads (http://www.alembic.com/vg)
 
You can see the April one I just submitted today. That Stanley Clarke in Curly Redwood is currently at Bass Central.

Money well spent in the right venue, I believe.  
 
I do think, however, one month needs to be a full-tilt, OMG, Series Two, complete with its' power supply and cable beneath an F2B.

CONSUMER ADVISORY:
 
Be extra careful when you view these ads as a group.
 
I saw just one of them by itself in VG and it was single-handedly responsible for me now owning 4 (soon to be 5) of these magnificent creations.
 
So I know I'm gonna padlock MY wallet before clicking that link.
 
But, I'll know where I hid the key... ;-)

Thanks for the advisory!
 
I am really digging the inside brown bass with the cream pickups.  I'm tempted towards one of those with series electronics.

That blonde bass is giving me some serious GAS.  Probably a good thing that I am broke right now.

I'm honored to be the owner of the SCSD in the February 2012 ad. I notice that there are no Europas in the gallery yet, perhaps there might be one later this year? Maybe a nice blue one!

I'm having the same problem clicking the thumbnails as I had with the peghead pages, i.e. when I click a thumbnail the page darkens and the thumbnail is redisplayed slightly larger.
interestingly, I just checked the peghead pages and the 'bass' page now displays correctly. the 'guitar' page still shows the above problem.

Clicking on the pics appears to be facilitated by a Java script.  Check your Java installation, and maybe update if needed.

That's really weird, Graeme, since the same script is on all three of these pages. Tom is correct that it's Javascript, and it might be good to check that your local installation of the same is up to date. Let me know!

Mica, it did that to me last night, but tonight it is working correctly.
