I'm also interested in seeing a fit pic of the polka dot. If I order one of these in the future it will definitely be the polka dot!

Just finished swapping out the buttons on mine with larger USN anchor buttons. I think it looks much better.

our thrifts are filled with navy garb.

I'm such a geek - I saw NAS and immediately thought "network attached storage" device. By the way, underwearer - is that your JM in the photo?

I thought this service was great and the fabrics used look tremendous. I have maintained an eye on this thread since it started as I was hoping to take advantage, but I'm officially spent for the year on purchases.

As I posted once before, there is a serious lack of fit pics in this thread other than those provided by zissou and about 2-3 others. Serious injustice to this service. I think fit pics of the shirts created really helps those of us on the fence gauge/decide whether to jump in or not.

It was the same with Epaulet's shirts when he first came on the forum scene. Lots of interest, but lots of questions on fit and such until pics started surfacing. Granted, this is a MTM service, but the pics still help a lot. Anyway [/rant].

Great fabrics and service though. Nice looking stuff.

haha NAS=Naval Air Station Oceana, master jet base.

No I play Telecasters. I had a Jaguar for a few years but sold it. I really want a Jazzy, never could get with the Jag shortscale.

Oh...see I thought you meant Navy/Army Surplus store after I thought Network Attached Storage.

....I seem to recall seeing your brando/guitar icon on another forum I frequent(offsetguitars.com) so I thought you might be from over there. I love my JM(building another now) and I just got a mustang a few months ago that I also love to play but for whatever reason I never really got along with Jaguars either. I know my mustang is the same scale, but the feel is way different.

yeah I stole my Avatar from offsetguitar, there was one of Jesus playing a Jazz that was cool too...I was there for a while until I sold my Jag

I didn't mind my Jag neck until I got my 52RI Tele and that neck kills the Jag, Ive been hooked on Teles ever since. 25.5" FTW

Im Surfoverb over there, and TDPRI (Tele forum)...I just don't post at Offset since I don't own one anymore. KInd of sad...

Underwearer: Where do you thrift in va? I recently visited M&GSurplus looking for OS and NOS cold weather gear. Tough to find decent stuff in my size (37).

That fits you very well, Pat! I think I am going to swap out the white buttons on mine with red buttons. Pics soon...

Thanks, mpcec. I like it much better.
