PeteWilson Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 My first guitar: an Epiphone Ultra-339 in Pelham Blue I've never played guitar before, so I'm excited to learn with such a beautiful machine. I had heard great reviews about how versatile this instrument is and how good the quality is. So the only question was, what finish? The sunburst is fantastic, but being inspired by Dave Grohl's ES-335, I had to go with the beautiful Pelham Blue. What a beautiful guitar to start your journey with! Enjoy the ride!

DrGolf Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 H E L P, Â How do you make your pictures small enough to upload? Any clues? Â With thanks in advance. Â Dr Golf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vomer Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Hi DrGolf, welcome. I don't actually know if there is an image size limit on the forum. Two thoughts: Â Make your image smaller in an image editing program! OK, got that out of the way... Â In the 'add reply' box, you can click on a corner of your image and drag it to make it smaller. This pic of my Sheraton is 1024x768 but I shrunk it to 753x564 and it should say so on the top bar on the pic: Edit to add, it's not working :). Edit again to add, now it is, kind of. I'm seeing it saying image resized 91%, was originally 1024x768. So Doc, have you tried just linking to whatever you've got, or is it telling you there's an image size limit. Someone far more knowledgeable than me will be along shortly. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Zeplin Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Zep, I LOVE that Black Casino of yours. I have never seen a black one. Where did you score that??.... Â Thanks. I do have a thing for black guitars and this one was great. Â I got it at Long and McQuade in Markham, ON, just north of Toronto. I traded a Gibson LP double cut for it and it came with a case.

DrGolf Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Hi Vomer, Â Thank you for your answer. A bit complicated for me but nevertheless I will try. Your guitar looks beautiful. Â When I tried to attach pictures of mine it told me that my pictures were too large. Clearly, there is a limit. My wife says I'm always over it. Â Hope the weather is not too bad in Somerset and that you are not on the "Levels". Â Watch this space, Â Dr Golf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
