Guest Farnsbarns Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I really love this forum - everybody is so supportive and encouraging. By contrast, the Marshall amp forum has a massive population of a-holes. Wub u guys. Ha ha. I was having trouble removing the chassis from my Marshall head. As far as I could see I'd removed all the screws but it wouldn't budge. Before I got a large screwdriver and levered it out I thought I'd better check I hadn't missed something so I headed to the Marshall forum and asked, the general consensus was that if I was so stupid I couldn't get the chassis out I had no business opening it. Now I've been around long enough to know that you don't apply brute force to anything before checking with someone who knows, but what a bunch if arseholes in that forum. In the end I did lever it out and it was simply stuck to the inside by having been put in while the paint in the inside of the cab was still wet.

STEVIL Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I agree with that too, love this forum, and the guys here. I used to be a member of a certain other guitar forum, and the snobbery there was unreal - I didn't stay long. This place is my daily hub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capmaster Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 You hit the nail on the head. I believe this forum is a great one since people here love their music, and so do love their instruments and gear as well. Having considered many details and overcome some weaknesses and shortcomings for music's sake makes people helpful and supportive I think. We all know that it can be hard to deal with the intricacies on our way, and hope to find help as well as we like to offer it. That's my two cents on what I experienced here...

fretplay Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 One of the nice things about this forum is that we have members from across the world. Much as I love my American cousins it's good to have an international input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanvillRob Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Farns, I agree.... I had a simple question about mic's.... and I've been doing this for 50 years! I didn't feel afraid to ask this simple question, and wasn't made to feel stupid for asking a question most musicians would know. I got my answer, and got my PA up and running. Just a cool place to hang out at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bill Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I agree, but somebody keeps leaving a nasty mess in the bathroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 one of my favorite forums as well, and I belong to a few, and this one is by far the most polite, cordial and helpful. I wont mention any names but the other ones, tend to reflect an overall attitude by a select few active members that just doesn't put out the welcome mat.. I may not post a ton of stuff in any of these forums, but I come here a few times a day.. love this place.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quapman Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 It's the only one I keep coming back to. But mostly to make peoples lives miserable and to leave nasty messes for Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milod Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Also guys, if you haven't been in the Epi version of the Gibson Lounge, you're missing something. The DYI there is huge and, if not encyclopedic, it's still more comprehensive than you can imagine. A lotta Aussies there because of the pricetags on guitars - and an Epi is getting into the Gibson price range in the U.S. And yeah, it's a good bunch here although the occasional troll and complaint does cut a lot of the value of international input on occasion. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Hopefully without wishing to be too 'Better Than Thou' about it all; we have a great bunch of folks here precisely because we have a great bunch of folks here.

surfpup Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 ... we have a great bunch of folks here precisely because we have a great bunch of folks here. What Goes Around Comes Around. P. This is true. Occasionally someone new comes in here a little too hard and strong, but they seem to settle down pretty quickly. I think that's due to the relatively mellow and modest vibe set by the members. There is a lot less chest beating here than a lot of other places Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aster1 Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 I enjoy the forum, and +1 on what M says. The Epi Lounge is quite fun with great folks too. May want to visit there & join in as well. I cross play (don't cross dress or cross nothing else!!) Gibson & Epi guitars (with many other brands too). Love it here & thanks to all.
