Interesting to note that probably not very much jazz was played on a Jazzmaster... it is without a doubt a surf guitar. — BOSS FINK "R.P.M." available now from DOUBLE CROWN RECORDS! www.facebook.com/BossFink www.doublecrownrecords.com Top
GuitarBob Joined: Jul 31, 2009 Posts: 139 Monterey, CA	Posted on Jun 17 2010 02:26 AM Say Norm, I have an internet friend looking for an old Surfer issue with the ad for something like "Dan Wallace's Hawaii Holiday Summer School". He went to the Islands for the session then and hoped I could scan the ad from one of my old Surfer issues. Well, I don't have many anymore. I thought I'd ask you.

shivers13 Joined: Jul 29, 2009 Posts: 2605 Boss Angeles, CA	Posted on Jul 08 2010 01:07 AM Fender goes British Invasion in this ad from the March '67 issue of SURFER. Those darn moptops! Notice the double-decker bus and the caption "Shot on location in London, England". The musical landscape had obviously changed as reflected in this ad. — BOSS FINK "R.P.M." available now from DOUBLE CROWN RECORDS! www.facebook.com/BossFink www.doublecrownrecords.com Top

WhorehayRFB Joined: Jun 12, 2008 Posts: 3331 Huntington Beach, CA	Posted on Sep 09 2010 12:03 AM shivers13 I have a bunch of Severson's SURFER mags from the early to mid-sixties and thought some of you may dig seeing some of the old ads and articles. I will post more periodically. My first entry is a Fender ad from Sept 1964. Interesting to note that Fender wants you to know that they make "music to surf by" considering the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan on Feb 9, 1964. Hmm, maybe surf music hung in there longer than we thought??? Awesome.

Brian Joined: Feb 25, 2006 Posts: 19195 Des Moines, Iowa, USA	Posted on May 16 2013 07:06 PM Hey! I just got an email from one of the models in these ads, Edie Carhart, check it out!!!! Hey, that's me in those ads - the 3 with the girl in the 1960s bikini. We shot them mostly in Laguna Beach where I lived and surfed. They were all taken in the mid 60s - not the late 60s because I graduated from HS in 1965 and did those a couple of years before. Edie PS When I graduated I was a mermaid at Disneyland - check out MouseChat.com for Disney Mermaids 1966 I think this is the Mermaid link Edie mentioned: http://micechat.com/blogs/mouth-of-the-mouse/3153-disneylands-real-life-mermaid-tales.html — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?

websurfer Joined: May 14, 2007 Posts: 1746	Posted on May 17 2013 01:38 PM Very cool that Edie found this thread! The little surfer girl, Fender ad model, and Disney mermaid...that pretty much makes her an icon of the '60s Southern California culture we celebrate in this music. My first visit to Disneyland was when we were living in S. Pasadena in '65-66. I loved the Submarine ride, and now I like to think she was one of those waving mermaids. Top

I would have been about 10 years too late to see her at Disneyland around '75, but I remember Submarine Voyage well, it was a great attraction.
