Paul,

Uh oh, someone copied url tags where they should have been copying img tags.

Like so (you type in this):
[img src="http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l277/paulem55/325c58b.jpg"]

Alternatively, you could hit the Image button on the Add Tags menu above the reply textarea. That's the fourth button from the left, in the lower row (at least, that's where it is on my machine). Just back up your cursor so that it sits in the middle, between the two tags, and either type or paste your url. Poof! You're done.

Doing like I've shown yields:



Just be sure to allow some white space around the tags, it looks better that way.

HTH

Oh yeah, nice rig!

HTH,

Thanks again for the tip on posting a picture. Obviously, I am new at this.
I'll follow your directions to the 'T'

That looks like one fun guitar to have around...

[eljib]

That's incredible. How did you come across the parts?

[paulem55]

Eljib,

Thanks for the kind compliment on the guitar.
The 3/4 scale neck was obtained on Ebay (not Ric, but another brand I made to look like one). The pickups are TV Jones Retrotron, which have a very close sound to the original toaster pickups on Rickenbackers (I couldn't afford the real toasters). The bridge is the same bigsby as on Lennon's guitar, as well the Bigsby tremolo.
It's not the real thing (I can't afford one), nor is it completely like the original (two pickups instead of three) but it sure looks good and sounds great (especially through my Vox AC 30).
