The Guitar Hub is Proud to announce a new contest. There will be a number of categories which you all will help to develop, the winner of each will receive a cash prize!
We are going to run 2 seperate contests at the same time.
A Pedal Board contest and an Overall Rig contest. Each will have sub categories and the finalists will compete for a Grand Prize.

Here is what we were thinking:
Pedal Board Contest Categories:
1. Vintage Board (must be 100% vintage)
2. Boutique Board (Must be 100% vintage)
3. Unique/creative Board

Rig Contest:
1. Vintage Amp and Guitar rig (must be 100% vintage)
2. Boutique Amp and Guitar rig (must be 100% boutique)
3. Most bizzare/unique Rig

Rules:
1. All pedals, guitar, amps must be owned by the person posting.
2. You must submit new photos with date stamps, no past collections allowed.
3. Your Username must appear in the photo, no Photoshop!
4. We must have at least 20 entries in each category, so spread the word
5. You are only allowed to enter one category!


Please post in this thread if you like the idea and if you have other suggestions for categories.

Oh, the prizes! We are thinking of $25.00 for each sub category winner and $100 to the overall winner which will consist of a final vote from the 6 finalists.

Have Fun and we hope this makes the winter months a little more fun :D

Does Bass count? I have a sweet vintage bass rig.

Damn, I used to have a 100% vintage MXR board right down to the power supplies too. I had 9 pedals, still have some but shoot....that would have been a contender for sure.

Question, what if your board is 100% boutique/vintage? I'm in that scenario.

We will combine the categories if we need to. Bass rigs are cool!

Freestompboxes might be joining our little competition as well!

Spread the word and lets get some one some extra GAS cash!

There would be a better chance of that if this forum weren't private and registration didn't require approval that you have to wait two days to get... hint, hint.
How are people supposed to get excited about a contest they're not allowed to view?

there was so many spam posts we had to do it. As a little test we will release the verification and watch what happens in 24 hours. We can certainly make the forums unprivate again!

Well, hahahahahaaaaa....judging by some of the thread titles I've seen recently it looks as though the **** spam has joined again.
