...hopefully, it won't come to blows...

|  | Giver of GAS Owner, Rocket Music | | Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Blacksburg, VA | | Yep, can't wait to meet him. Sounds like a very similar story to mine (he followed his bliss, which lead directly to peddling bass gear). I scooted out of telecom after 15 years of software development grind...
He's got a nice store, too. I might have more Roscoes, but he's definitely got way more of everything else (20+ bass brands? Buncha amp brands? Nice store!).
You guys will have to educate me in the art of selling amps online. I have zero success in that regard, with the exception of the Genz Benz Shuttle stuff.  |

"Cause in a way your selling yourself, not just brake pads"
Now Greg, can you sell a Ketchup Popsicle to a woman in white gloves?
God Bless, Ray
