SOCAL PICTURES...

Here are some pictures from yesterday's get-together here in San Diego. I know there are a lot of other folks who were taking pictures, so hopefully we'll see those soon, too!

And now, with no further delay:

Great pics, Steve, thanks! (I guess it was just a coincidence that so many of these pics included your Yairi! ;) )

oh man....where are the pics of Steve and his Yairi?....that way you can see that the top of the Yairi was just like new until he let everyone play it.... :eek: .................. :roll:

I know someone must have taken pics of Steve...I didn't have a camera myself but I'll bring one next time...or I will use Steve's camera and take some pictures of him with it so they arrive here with the first post here on TGF....:)

Man....I'm still stuck on the first picture....

I just can't get past seeing Cisco as a blonde :eek: :ha: ;)

Cool pics....looks like a great time. I can't wait to see some of Ryan's shots from "late in the evening"

:)

Also, thanks Gardner for bringing your Ultrasound.
It sounds great. I wish I would have had more time to plunk around on it. That amp together with your nice guitar is a sweet combination!
That was the first time for me playing both and ES guitar and the Ultrasound and they both impressed me greatly. Thanks again!
