Rabs Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 You did great, I would've puked all over myself Lol... Cheers... :) Yeah I saw them walking about.. Half of me wanted it to happen and half would rather they just walked past... But as soon as they asked I just knew I had to do it and just hoped I didn't say anything too stupid.. Also you may have heard from the clip the noise at the show was crazy, it was hard to hear him and even myself when I was answering the questions.. But hey im ok with it.. mostly :) (could have been WAY worse :unsure: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I think you did great, Rabs. You described the attributes of your instruments quite well. I think when he asked about the wood, I might have degenerated into puns and what not... Oh yeah, man... it all about good hard wood you know...

I've lost so much hearing I can't pick up the higher pitches. What makes me so frustrated is music just doesn't sound the same anymore with hearing aids.

You were talking about sandwiches? Bowler hats? The weather?? Must of missed that too.Actually you did fine and looked great. I'm just not used to hearing foreign accents here.

pippy Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Oyyyyyy!!!!.....................I really hate this... When I read the start I was a bit worried that it might have gone awry but not in the slightest! You came across as someone who really understands both guitars and the individual needs of each guitarist and I thought sold your pitch really well!!! As far as the scale length thing goes; don't give it another moment's thought. You came across as being a luthier who could build an instrument on a custom-order basis so a client could ask for a guitar with a 24 3/4" or 25 1/2" or whatever scale they like. Props to the guys for picking you out in the first place and giving you plenty of time at the end to give out your contact details, too. Pip.

Rabs Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 Thank you one and all :) And Pippy.. Well the reason I sounded like I did at the start of my post is I just hate being on camera. I was VERY tired at the time we filmed and don't even remember doing it or what I had said... Plus seeing the ever growing bald patch on the top of my head isn't fun, I don't usually see myself from that point of view :) But yeah it could have been much worse that's for sure. I just wanst really prepared for it.. Luckily as it was near the end of the day (I think) I had spoken to a lot of people so had had the chance to practice my shpeil a bit. Id like too have gone in to some more detail about some of my builds (like the half and half) but it just didn't go that way. Lets just hope something more comes of it... Just awaiting for that phone to ring. I also thought maybe of getting back in touch with those Guitar Nerds guys and seeing if they want to do a more in depth review of my guitars.
