Thanks w-2. Think you could elaborate a bit? Or will it be the official OFC guitar?

Hey I'm just an idiot that sells guitars for a living.

I have some ideas but have not seen or heard anything firm. I think when I go up to the facotry they try to hide stuff from me these days...

reminds me of the error code I put on my swo's (depending on the customer of course).

Error code - ID.10.T

Anyway... being the village idiot isn't so bad. Not quite as good as being village drunk, or as glamorous as being village slut, but still worthy of merit.

OK, it is not the OFC model. It is pretty cool but I'm not saying what.
Now there is a name associated with it. Not that I'm an expert on this stuff but the one that marketing picked needs viagra. Actually it's so lame it needs a full script of it and levitra too. Eat both bottles and crush and snort the 30 cialias. Maybe then it would be only half lame. Once again, they have the chance to do something great and their small......wait a minute, we've been here before. CLICK!

That's OK Bill,
You can get on the soapbox anytime you want to.
After all, I think you deserve to sound off if you like. :cool:

Hey CWK-2
Are they going to use my idea for the Viagra shaped headstock and oxycontin epaulets? If you need to match the colors of Viagra, Cialis and levitra and of course Al's Oxycontin, I will be happy to look into it for you. I think it would make for an interesting leaf color combination.

Hey if this happens, You are creating another definition of THE BIG O!!! :eek: :rolleyes: :cool: :) ;)

Phil, please don't mention this again, they may hear you and actually do it. (Of course they'll claim it was their idea)

We can call it anything we want - we do already!

Wait until the ads show up on Ebay!

If you can't say what it is can you say what it isn't?

what it isn't, is a good name to hang on a concept that should be a stepping stone forward. It should be treated with respect and should be profound enough to support whatever growth that should come its way (which I think could be great- but hey, what does a retired gas station owner know)

How to work a gas pump and change the prices on the sign?

Oh, was that a rhetorical question?

Most companies pick senseless names, look at ultria, novartis or verizon. A rose by any other name smells just as sweet (or as sulpherous). If it's good looking, good sounding piece it will sell no mater what they call it. If people don't like how it looks or sounds, well ...

What gas station owner knows how to work a pump, they're too busy changing prices. Is the 2005 the receptionist desk model?

Hanging on my wall is the "74" Custom Balladeer and the "03/04" Elite LX. Can't decide which I enjoy more.

I think I have my 30th Anniversary guitars!

OK, you guys guessed it. It's the reception deck model. They are only going to built 10 of them so it will be truely collectable. The list price will be 29995.95 but with dealer prep and delivery charges should come out around 35000. Please note, you have to supply your own receptionist. There will be no signed certificate.

I did my research at the drug store.
Viagra-Diamond shaped-Blue
Levitra-Round-Peach
Cialis-Tear shaped-Mustard yellow
I know most of the men on this site are manly men and in most part not needing these medications and therefore not familiar with the colors or shapes of them :D :eek: .
That is the main reason for my research.

Sorry Al, the only medications I could find in mauve was a generic vaginal tablet and a hemmorhoid cream.

Are they going to redesign the leaf pattern if they use these colors? They may also have to call this guitar "The 2005 Erectors Edition"
