Title: Nominate December 2017 GOTM
Post by: JOYCEfromNS on November 14, 2017, 10:35:10 AM
Use this thread to nominate your choice for Guitar of The Month picture. Post the picture in this thread.

The nominations will be  according to the following rules:

1. If a member's Picture (or  similar picture) has been GOTM previously, it can not be GOTM again

2. If a member has had a GOTM in the last 3 months, another picture from that member can't be nominated again.

3. Nominations must be pictures of Larrivee made instruments (guitars, ukes, mandos, etc) owned by a member and posted by members on this forum. Pictures including other makes disqualifies the picture.

4. Nominations will be in a sticky thread in the Pictures section started by one of the mods each month. By about the 20th of the month a Vote thread will be started (each month) so that members can pick the next GOTM from the nominations.

5. Nominations will be closed each month by a mod after 6 nominations have been received.

6. A collage of the same instrument is acceptable

7. Only one nomination per person please. Each picture must have at least one Larrivee guitar.

8. This thread is about nominating the GOTM. if you wish to post a bunch of pictures of your guitar, better to start your own thread [in Pictures].

9. A member may nominate his/her own guitar, or an instrument belonging to another member.

Let's see if I can figure out how to post a pic.  This is from Christmas Eve service last year, my LSV-11 on the right.  Center is an L-09-LH belonging to a friend, and on the left a C-10 belonging to another friend.

Danny likes the LSV-11 ETC. I've had two LSV-11s, one of my favorite Larrivees, in the original short scale and smaller LS body size. Beautiful guitars.

Maybe interest can be revived with a format update.  Something like

Larrivee picture of the month
Each picture must have at least one Larrivee guitar
No other guitar brands allowed
No nudity (I struggled with this restriction😎)
No political posters etc
No firearms in picture

Just a thought.  

then  I could nominate something like this

I like it I omitted the last half of your post as they ought to be covered by general rules.

So maybe starting in January we can give Steve's suggestion a try? Comments :?

I say change the rule's as the two multi guitars in the pix are just beautiful rep's of Larrivee guitars.

Clearly I misunderstood the one instrument part.  My bad.  I can retract.

It's just such a perfect photo for the holiday season.

I vote to, at the very least, "bend the rule" just this once.   :wink:

And I agree. Paraclete's photo is wonderful, we won't see another like it.
The photo is perfect, in the setting where the guitars were played and the strings may still have been warm from being played when the photo was taken.
It would be a credit to the players of those guitars, and ourselves as a forum, to make this the GOTM for December.

I agree with the proposed rule change and the inclusion of Paraclete's image.
