Indeed, seems that people started a whole industry around electric guitars (and I am not speaking only about directly related things such as guitar strings, amplifiers, picks, stompboxes) and they never cease to amuse and make me wonder where could we go next?!!
Because Jon of GuitarNoize.com and Gary of Thumbrella pointed to a few interesting electric guitar related gadgets, when I found this I knew I had to show it here, so here it is: the Fender Telecaster mouse pad! Very cool thing to own, don’t you think? My current home mouse pad has some nuclear plant related drawings and graphs on it and the one in the office has cats on it…
Later edit: Jon asked me if they come in Strat version. Well, here’s the link to the original Tele model and here’s a Strat model.
Well, how’s that for a gift, IG?!! Huh?!

hmm, I might have to get one of those, I’ll put it on the list along with the humbucker keyring!

It may be nice, actually I think it would be nicer than my pad with nuclear central images

Great find, Ovidiu! I actually don’t have a mousepad at work, so I may have to pick one of these up.

Thanks, Josh! Yeah, it is great, I didn’t know about it until looking for those keyrings of Jon and Gary but I found these pads lovely! They scream “electric guitars” all over!
