We get asked a lot to bring back the old product shots of Eileen posing with the gear. Eileen has retired from that gig, so it has become a part of Bottlehead history.

We have kicked around different ideas over the years of how to bring back some of those shots. I started a few weeks ago to put together a web page of the photos. That evolved into a slideshow, which evolved into a short video. I have uploaded it and the link is below. Not sure if it is within the acceptable standards for youtube, so we will just have to find out if it stays up, I guess. PLEASE NOTE: this video contains tasteful, fine art style photos of a nude woman. If you are uncomfortable at PG-13 movies I would suggest that you not watch the video.

Great execution Dan. I hope this doesn't get pulled and it would be cool if you could somehow host it on your site.

Thanks for the kind words. I will host it here once I figure out a converter that will work right. I tried several to change it from a WMV to HTML5 and every one of them ruined the aspect ratio.

Actually that's the Strat I built a while back. Art kept laughing about the short scale neck when he was playing it.

The one of the Queen listening to the sex amp is my favorite.  It's just a great pic.

The world was made for those not cursed with self-awareness.
