ive played one and liked it actually. i can get behind someone like that, no foul by me, i also think his wiper blade is very interesting, never tested it to see if there's value but interesting and innovative, i have nothing against graphite necks either. thanks for the pic!

Sorry, i guess i stepped into it - i didnt realize that brian was undercover thread-jacking to sell basses on this forum. It honestly looked like a "copy" of a Fodera to me. oops...


What are you talking about? First you apologize about your statements only to come back and make them again. Are you that frustrated with your life and have nothing better to do but try and cause trouble?

I believe the thread was brought back to the front by Octopikiller, before my post. Do some research before spouting off at the mouth about things you have no clue of.

And where is my fretless forsale at on my site?

This should actually say:

"1. The 1989.5 Carvin LB70 that I have

2. The 2003 Carvin BB75P that I have."

:hmm:
I remember when I thought it would be really cool if I could have two basses. Now I have three and think it would be cool to have . . . oh, I guess nine or ten would probably do me. :smug:

I won't resort to name calling and/or personal attacks like you've launched above but i should let you know that i don't appreciate your lowbudget "e-thuggery online" attempt at intimidation.

My personal opinion has nothing to do with how i feel about life nor do i care to cause trouble for you or anybody. i'm not the one here hawking stuff like a street vendor.
 
WOW! What does all of this have to with picking two basses. I'd still pick my Sadowsky and my F Bass. And I'd probably have to sneak my Precision pass the bass monitor. :D

Nothing really new hasn't come about since Leo built the mold. But I haven't seen any grand changes in the trumpet or sax or even banjo. But there are enough new things to keep a business and a discussion board going in weak economic times.

Please can we get back to the discussion at hand? The PM function works real well for outside conversation. ;)
 
:)

i think tangents are important to a discussion.

it didn't get too out of hand. a dig here, a jab there, and its over.

mydogbo brought up an interesting point about thread-jacking to sell basses.

there's a difference between TBers that are part of the community and just happen to sell or build basses that get involved in discussions and a dealer that comes in and spams.

dealers like Brian and Adrian, or builders like JP add a lot to discussions here at TB. just because they make money building or selling basses shouldn't exlude them from joining threads.

someone that lashes out with thread-jacking accusations is obviously at wits end because they have difficulty communicating in a civil/logical manner.

Brian has contributed a lot to this board. i appreciate his presence here.

these little tangents are good for flushing out the chaf. this is not meant as an insult, just an observation.
