Geeeeze!!....the third one, to download/look at, must be a zillion pixels!! It took a couple of minutes to even see it on my computer - then opened in very close up (the grill of the amp), incredible detail!! I zoomed out in photo shop, to a good, balanced look - and WOW - nice wallpaper!!!

I guess I don't have the patent on that type of photography, but I have a feeling I might have been the one to give them the idea!

I reduced it to look good on a 1024x768 screen.

Here is the original: (click) Enjoy.

Edit: I posted the original to Photobucket, but it looks like they reduced it. I'll look into it.

Edit: The original image is 10MB - I didn't notice. I guess if anyone REALLY wants it, I can zip it an email it. Just PM me with your email address and make certain that you can receive BIG files.

Jellecaster............. you may have your maximum photo size set to 1024x678. You could go one step higher with the free Photobucket. You should be able to save a relatively high quality 1600 x 1200 jpg at less than 1 megabyte. Your 1024x677 picture is only 112 KB.

That's the first thing that crossed my mind when I read the thread title.

Do you remember the old commercial?

".... open a bottle - Hires...."

Goes great with Paramount potato chips. Remember Slim Chipley?

You're right! I deleted the previous image and posted a new one at 1600. Note that it is a wide image so if you have a "standard" monitor you will get banding.

This is the best I can do. (link)

The recommended resolution setting for my monitor is 1440 x 900. Here's a reduced and cropped version that meets those requirements.

Start 'Em Up - 1440 x 900

That "Start 'em up" picture is in a guitar magazine I have and every time I open it I stop and look at it for a while.

I was lucky enough to score a poster of that print at the Fender Master class held at Tamworth (Country music festival) a few years back. It's on my living room wall. Regards.

Looks like the American Vintage '52 to me. More than likely the best looking one Fender had in house at the time the photograph was taken.
