Not sure what's happening on your end. I downloaded your pic, resized it down, and it's posting now:

Very nice!

I could have sworn there was a 1mb limit on photos here, but in the last couple of months I've been noticing some huge resolution pics way exceeding the 1mb limit.

Maybe a little clarification is needed, not just for the newbies, but for the vested members too... :unsure:

That is stunning !
 
I'm curious about the Lzzy too - does it have a thin narrow neck? I always loved the look of those but I have fairly large hands so small necks are not comfortable for me.

I've got a silver sparkle EBMM Albert Lee HH... Sounds great, looks cool, and the gun oil/wax finish behind the neck feels amazing in my hand. A near-perfect guitar, except that the neck is so narrow that there are certain chord forms I have to avoid when I'm using it. (I've heard the St Vincent model uses the same neck profile to suit her hands.) Even so, I like the thing so much I'm not willing to part with it.

So is the Lzzy Hale neck pretty skinny too? I know her original had a 4/5ths size body also, but AFAIK the body on the production models was full sized Explorer all the way.

Yep to both. Full sized body, skinny narrow neck. The way I like 'em! Sadly maybe not the best for big mitts.
 
Can't play open chords on little necks.

Robert, with all that weight you have lost, have your hands shrunk any or are they still EXTRA Large?
I have tree stump hands. I find making Hendrix and Frusciante type thumb over 6th string chords to be a real challenge for me. It would seem I would benefit from a narrow width neck, but I really am most comfortable on wider necks where my fingers have room to press the intended strings and not mute the ringing out of notes on the neighboring strings.

BTW I sure wish I could figure out how to lose 40 lbs and not feel like I need hypnosis not to be hungry all the time.
