:bassist: vergonha e o que este idiota esta fazendo.

Nao, vc que esta errado. VC pudia usar "KS-Style" do mesmo jeito que outros usam "P-Style" o "J-Style" para significar esses estilos de baixo. Usar o proprio nome do homen no seu produto e errado; puro e simples. E vim pra ca pra mostar sua falta de educacao em frente dos melhores baixistas do mundo e de repente a coisa pior que vc poderia ter feito.

Eu pretendo comprar um baixo do Ken, quando for possiviel. Ele faz uns dos melhores baixos do mundo enteiro, e na minha opiniao valem cada dolar do preco. Eu ate pensava comprar um dos seus baixos, como um projeto..mas depois de ver sua falta de respeito aos baixistas nesse forum, eu acho que eu prefiro nao te alimentar de qualquer forma.
 
Hey Luchi,

Would you like me to post some of the pretty pictures of the strat and tele bodies that you sold myself and my friends a few years ago, the ones with the wrong sized and out of square neck routs, the cracks from the wood being green and the shipping damage because you used no padding at all in the boxes. While some of your wood may have been nice, the routing was not as you advertised and a lot of your product was not worth using, more trouble than it was worth. This was back before you started to steal other people's names as far as I know.

For myself, I will go to bat for Ken Smith right here and now. He has been nothing but helpful to me, not just with the product I have purchased from him, which was exactly as advertised, but also with personal advice regarding playing technique.

Nothing that I purchased from you Mr. Luchi, was as you advertised and I know others who have had the same experience.

All I can speak from is my personal experience.

Regards,
S

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that Mr. Luchi is going to respond saying that that was back when his quality wasn't as good, and that his quality has GREATLY improved now. :rollno:

:bassist: Eu ate usava um tempo, mas ele foi tao rude e sem educacao comigo que eu respondi a mesma altura que ele estava se referindo a mim. parei de utilizar o nome 'DO HOMEM" nos titulos dos leiloes, falta de educacao e me chamar de ladrao e mentiroso, isto eu seria se estivesse vendendo os produtos como sendo dele, e nao faço isto. Eu sei que os baixos dele sao de exelente qualidade, tocabilidade, e sao muito bonitos, mas isso nao lhe da o direito de dizer que meus produtos sao de baixa qualidade e tudo mais que foi dito aqui, eu nao sou sem educaçao com quem nao e comigo, mas nao sou trouxa de ouvir um monte de coisas sobre mim e ficar quieto.. voce nao imagina quantos baixos eu faço por mes, e voce ficaria surpreso pelas pessoas que compram, muitos deste mesmo forum.... muitos mesmo.... nao compre um baixo meu nao... voce ja nao leu o bastante sobre eles aqui? abraçao.:bassist:

:bassist: i did not open a thread to tell people my products are fake... i wont say again that i dont make Ken Smith basses, they are nice, but not THE BASS... damn, as he said, anyone can glue wood together.. heheh so, if i am glueing wood together they are coming out looking like his glued wood, but they are not his, i must say, i probably use a different brand of glue... i have received private emails from people of this thread telling me their real opinion about KS... so i am not worried about what he say about me... :bassist:

Oh wow! Thanks for responding to my post! You sure cleared everything up. You seem so sincere and so genuine. I would love to buy one your rip-off, bargain, glued up, knock off, copy, half finished, BS, pirate basses! Link Removed

Hey, how much for a KS knock-off with an ash neck?

Do all of the brazilian women really have those killer tan lines? Enquiring minds want to know.

With Brazillian women and tan lines in the topic I had trouble with prouncing the word 'Ash'. :hiding:

I hope you all understand.. :D

Oh and also, TB rocks.. It swings at times too and love the classical side of things as well.. (R&B and Gospel, etc all inclusive..lol)
 
Luchi, I don't know if you realise how much damage you've already done to your own business. If you'd chose to offer your products on eBay as ...-STYLE basses you wouldn't be (rightfully) accused of false advertising, although it might be keyword spamming. If you're serious about building basses you should concentrate on making it on your own, finding your own style, improving your skills and the quality of your products. It's very simple: if you're good there's a market for you to conquer. Your behaviour and attitude only makes people stay away from your business, and not just now, but also for the future. And Talkbass represents a large group of potential customers. Damage done, I'm afraid... :rollno:
