Jammer Group: Members Posts: 641 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Mar. 28 2006, 13:30 There seems to be an abundance of users who have avatars of their guitars. It's great to see so many more musicians than there were two or three years ago who treasure their instruments. However, I recently noticed that two users have practically identical avatars of a classical guitar. It's getting difficult to tell them and their forum posts apart. In a similar way to those musicians who strive to emulate Mike's guitar tone and vibrato technique to the nth degree, maybe we should all be more original with our artistic license? Back to top
