charlie brown Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 Why did I just know that would be your answer?... "clean...very clean." With all these Beatle experts here and the recent loosening of the grip on content I'm thinking about creating a little Beatle trivia game of my own. Did I ever mention that I too find the Beatles and their history very interesting? Nelson Mocker. "He's a King Mixer, he hates group unity, so he gets everyone at it!" ;>) CB
Chefman Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 googled looking for info on Elites and Elitists...drawn in very quickly by the knowledge, support and humor here.
Fadedepi Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 The old fashion way, bought a Epi G-400, went to the Epi website, clicked Forum and joined. This site is the 1st one I go to daily. Gotta get my Epi fix. Faded...

stone1281734000 Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 I found it about three years ago. I was googling around trying to get all the info I could on the "USA Sheraton", when MF was blowing them out, before buying.
Johno Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 It was winter and I was hunting wild game when I came upon a clearing in the woods and first saw it. I didn't know what it was at first and I didn't want to take a shot at if it was out of season. It looked cold and frozen in the snow and as I drew closer I could tell it had been abandoned there by Gibson. I took it back to my cabin and nursed it back to health and when it was strong enough I put it back up on the internet.
JefferySmith Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 The first time I ran into it was when I was a Katrina refugee in Houston. With no money except for food (FEMA paid the motel bill), I had nothing to do for 5 weeks other than sit in the motel and surf the web. I had recently bought an AlleyKat, and decided to see what else Epiphone had to offer. As I recall, I posted a few times and got banned for something I said. I hooked up again this year after the mods forgot who I was, I guess. Don't know what I said wrong, but it got me booted. I just googled "Epiphone forum", which is probably what I should have written instead of the above. Sheesh, no wonder I get banned.
JefferySmith Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 not sure really' date=' I was looking for porn.[/quote']For the best-forgotten Epiphone Les Paul MILF model? Or the Epiphone Les Paul BBW model?

Maybe it was "Tough Love," and they wanted to see how "loyal" we are to Epi's? LOL!!!!!!!!! They do seemed to have "relaxed" a bit, lately... Just hope that trend will continue! CB

CB You're right. Six months ago, the mere mention of a Beatle was enough to get a thread deleted. I guess they have realized that censorship doesn't breed loyalty, but only fear. You couldn't ask for a bigger fan club of Epiphones than this forum. And I sort of agree with Ed Roman [Yikes!] that some Epiphones are better made than Gibsons. I picked up a Gibson Les Paul Doublecut at GC a month ago, and it didn't really impress me. I think that Epiphone's Chinese factory could do as well on everything except the finish (I will always prefer a lacquer finish).
fenrirlupus Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 ... honestly? alright, but i may get flamed... i diddn't know about epiphone until i saw it in guitar hero. there. happy? i liked what i saw and i figured i'd look it up and see if i liked what i heard too. found the forum that way. then when i went to buy a guitar, i found out that no local stores carry epiphone, gibson, kraemer, steinberger... any gibson related brand. so i got a washburn and found a barely used epiphone amp. and i still want a dot... (or a sheraton, riviera p93, casino... i see how GAS can become such a big problem...)

jocal62 Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 I bought my MIK Casino and it had a register card, so I went to the website to register, then somehow I saw they had a forum so I went in and registered too :-
Thermionik Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 . . Stumbled down through the Gibson forum..... hanging out there GASsing for an ES-335. Ended up being gobsmacked by a '96 Sherry with Seymour Duncan '59s. Came down here to see what it was like, and it was really good. Lots of intelligent un-pretentious guitar talk. Apart from prolife.....
stan 58 Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Prolife is fine, as long as you don't get him started on you know what. Stan.

Nic Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Found it at the Epi site. I'd never heard of forums until I found this one. Now I realize there is a forum for any and every obscure subject. None of them are as good as this one.
Thermionik Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 snookleputz - I am liking the way you are thinking, you crazy.....
charlie brown Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 How did I find this forum? Crazy, and full of "Cranky" people....today/night! LOL! Whew!! CB
