'Just wanted to say Hello to all TB'ers from myself and my store, Bass Central. Although I've been playing for a zillion years, and owner of Bass Central for 10, I've never had the time to get at all involved or even view Talkbass for that matter. One of best all-time employees, Gard Lewis, has an extensive background on Talkbass and brought a lot to the table when coming to work for us 5 yrs. ago.

*In my 37 yr. playing career, I would've never dreamed that the bass community, world wide, would become so vast, well-connected, and unified. I perceive that TB has contributed quite a bit to this fellowship. Great job.

Beaver, welcome to TB.

I noticed that you own a store. you may want to check out the CUP just as a preventative measure from any rule violations. it's gotten a few people in trouble.

it can be found here (http://www.talkbass.com/forum/faq.php?faq=commuserpolicy#faq_cup)

Hey Beaver, It's Tim in Oklahoma. Glad to see you. You already get your share of free ads around here. I really like how you've treated me, and many others feel the same.
Welcome!!!!

Hey Beaver.

You are a phenom on the bass and your store is great.

I have bought 2 basses through the store. Both times the staff was cool and made the experience worthwhile.

Plus I got to talk to you which was cool since you are a major influence on my playing.

Yeah, this place is awesome.

Now give us all an extra 20 percent off on your basses!

:)

You mean you weren't here when they gave out a free MusicMan bass to every supporting TBer? Man, you missed out. The Bongo color I wanted was discontinued, so Dave LaRue let me have his.

...still waiting for it to arrive, though.

See? I told you this place was well moderated.:smug:
