Shot of my Esquire tonight.
Taken by my dear friend Emily tonight at an outdoor Jam.
The "Queen" is my g/f Dawn, who built and painted the guitar. I am the "Jack", but should probably be a "Joker".
When I showed her the cards, she insisted on hitting them with tinted lacquer to make them look old. That's my Queen!! I love close-ups like this.

A queen and a jack? Maybe not a pair, but a perfect match.

She relic'd the body, wore the guard to the black, sprayed the burst, aged the parts, and even drilled out and replaced the dot markers because she didn't like the first ones.
She LOVES to see her guitars being played.

Cool idea with the cards. Decals? If I could find a way I do the same. Couple of pocket aces though:)

That is really cool - and to have a girlfriend who builds and finishes guitars - you are sooo lucky man!

don't mean to hijack the thread but my wife took a similar style picture of me playing my '72 RI ...

however she didn't build it, Fender did.

I love how, when that nasty Esquire is out there front and center, the PRS is relegated to the background.

So, the only combination missing is Fender being someone's girlfriend! That'd be cool! I'd marry her!
