heya guys
recently, during my daily lurking in the classifieds looking for cool effects, i realized that all the non-effects threads in the "accessories" forum were really cramping my style, so i decided that an effects only classifieds sub forum was in order. after floating it past my honorable co-admins, we decided that yes, it was good, so we're passing it up the tree to paul, for him to implement.
so very soon, we will have an "effects" only sub forum in the classifieds. we're also going to be renaming the "amps" sub forum "amps, preamps and cabinets" to help minimize bleed-over or dupe posts.
thought you guys would get a kick outta that. i know i'm psyched.

My only related suggestion is to create a subforum of: "Dirt cheap, like-new condition, effects that Unrepresented has been GASing for."

So will the "Accessories" forum still exist for things like strings, bass preamps & pickups, bass books etc? |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: London, England | | | The line between preamp and fx pedal is a very blurry one in many cases. Some overdrives like the Hematoma and BB are labelled as preamps, many people use a Sansamp as an overdrive pedal. I say if it's a pedal, stick it in effects. Maybe even tuners? How about naming the thread 'pedals and effects' which is a bit broader? |

we can make the title "effects and pedals" - that should be no problem.

Those items will now be listed in the Basses section of the classifieds, as a service to all TB members, as the cluttering of that forum will frustrate browsers to the point they refuse to look at it, thus preventing GAS-fueled bass-binges unbecoming of the current economic climate.
