HOLY POOP!!!! You leave that out in the rain????

How else will he get the hardware rusty enough to call it a "relic"??.

As a leftward I don't need to think about the Albert Lee model....but they surely do come in a wide range of colours.

Well done Spud...I´ll be in Wales to visit my mam in August....stand on the platform at Cardiff station & I'll give you a wave.

I hope that NEW pics aren't required for this party, as the weather here has been lousy since Spud hit 4999/5000...

Here is a selection of pics of my ALs for your viewing pleasure!

Once the weather cooperates long enough, I will get them all outside together for a group "hug".

Dude! Pictures like this are making me really love white on EBMM's. That combo of white and the pickguard look fantastic. Nice choice!

Tommorow i will post my AL pic for you, time to keep this going

 

[glockaxis]

And yes, I have finally taken the plastic off the pickguard---this is an old photo. I must take some new pics. Sorry, I don't drink enough to have a favorite.

 

[Spudmurphy]

WOW!!! Great photos guys!!!
Thanks for posting them.

I think this is the third time I've posted #5000 - been away all week.

To our ALOC CIC I humbly apologise Sir!

The hotel lobby had a steam driven computer d/ling at about 1 kb per day!! - so I missed your "photostrip" - just goes to show that our CIC is in good shape!!

I'll be posting more AL pics later this afternoon.

Only 7 sleeps till Euro Knucklehaed bash!!

Hey spud, congratulations on the big (almost) 5000

Although only a newbee I have had many a laugh at your your work here on the forum. Keep them coming.

What can be closer to a mans heart than his Albert and his local brew. Neither will ever let you down.

Poor weather has kept me from taking my pics but finally they are here. Hope you enjoy them as much as I did posting them.

Who can say that the AL is not the hottest, sexiest, all conquering axe money can buy.

Long live the AL!

Enjoy

[gbradtke]

[Spudmurphy]

Spud,

Glad to contribute, see if I cant get a good neck shot, it is nice,

Shiner Bock is from the Spoetzl Brewery in a little South East Texas town called Shiner Texas, this area of Texas had a lot of European immigrants back in the early 1900's, it is a barvarian style Bock Beer.

Used to could only get it in Texas but now has a good US distribution network.
