If you like the Elite T's with the flames, check out this guy's art gallery . Flaming computer screens for every mood! He's even got tutorials for growing your own if you're the graphic designer type.

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | Hamer / Ovation do some of the best ghost-flames I have ever seen, and as a biker, I've seen some flame paint jobs.
I don't know if it's the same on the Elite-T, but Alpep had a Hamer Standard awhile back that the ghost-flames actually changed depending on the lighting angle.
Speaking of painted guitar.. Ovations "Flag" guitar that came out in early '02 I think, still sets the bar for flags on a guitar as far as I'm concerned. It was painfully obvious at NAMM when it seemed every guitar maker had a "Flag" painted guitars, but Ovations' almost looked like a flag on a guitar.
I hope with the new goings-on up in Hartford that they get to keep the artists responsible for stuff like that. |

Location: Central Massachusetts | Didn't we at some point along the way figure out that they farmed the flame artwork out to Pastrana , the same folks who did the NAMM one-off? Wonder if they were responsible for the flag, too? |
