| | | | Guitar forum as good as TalkBass?

TalkBass is a pretty awesome forum. Lots of traffic, a good system for trading and general safety.
I was wondering if there was an equivalent for guitar heads? Some of the ones I come across just don't really cut it, are low on posts, and have a bit of a spam problem. |

Long answer: It's all about what kind of people are drawn to various instruments. Go into a GC and you'll see what I mean. Who is playing the guitars? Are they the kind of people you'd blindly send $2k to and trust that they would send you their instrument like you might do here on the TB classifieds?
Also, TB is extremely well moderated. Maybe because bass players care enough to do things right instead of just throwing something out there.
j/k!
Short answer: NO. |

Just stay out of the Off Topic room. Things never go well there. |
