Sitting in a hotel in Nijmegen Holland, fighting off jetlag and was curious as to how many folks outside of the USA play fEARful cabs?

Heck, we can't even figure out how many there are anywhere. I think the "fEARful club" shows about 70 cabs worldwide, which is absurdly low. At any rate, I can say that there is at least two in Pennsylvania, USA.......
I'm in East Yorkshire, England enjoying a 15/6 at every opportunity.
If anyone local is interested in hearing one PM me.

I don't know of a single one in nashville, though that will change by Monday...we'll have 4-6 boxes done and at least 2 of them will be completed within a couple weeks. Obviously, not everyone who uses a product posts to a forum. There must be a statistical way of adjusting for that to come up with a close number, but in my jetlagged state, the mere thought just made my brain hurt

That takes it up to 2 that I now know of
A fella in Bonn Germany I know plays a 12/6.Both of my bands will be touring the UK. The Dirt Daubers will be there later this month, and Th' Legendary ShackShakers will be there in April...perhaps we could knock back a pint and talk, schedules permitting.

I know that Alex, from Barefaced and greenboy are friends and admire each others designs, so in a way it counts...would LOVE to try a Barefaced if I happen upon someone in the UK who has one.

I've never been much for signing up on a club list of Uses Whatever even when I'm a fan of Whatever. Evidently a lot of fEARfuls users never get counted, maybe for that same reason. But I see some of them from time to time posting, though some of them really are not forum nuts enough to follow threads. I also recall a lot of early advocate guys that the more recent fEARful users have never interacted with, and some of these great early adopter folk have been in Europe - and again the type not much for forums, at least not TalkBass.
Some of the US guys are real quiet too and pretty busy with music or other careers. But when I've contacted them many of them are enthusiastic and are using their cabs as their main or only rigs. Some people just aren't about forum presence, so they may never see this or respond.

And Alex and I are friends but rarely get to really talk these days, and we come from ideas and design philosophies that are much the same, going back into probably ten years or more when we knew even less than we think we know now, which for me is less than what I thought I knew ; }

Well, sometimes I wish the world map of fEARfuls was organized and every well-met comrade was currently hangin' with the buds. But life happens...Of course...heck, I just haven't slept in a couple days...got bored and started to wonder
Best on the road to you, dukeorock - may the shows and the people met reward you!
