Whoa now, Salt Lake and Provo are two different worlds. I never go south of Draper if I have a choice.


While this is true, the below statement is really the best policy

Let's crowd fund a forum that only talks about people's sigs on other forums. :snax:

Well yeah but Utah has fewer neo-nazis.

Maybe.

Yo, let's talk about that sig. :eek:

It's just supplementary design work with Joel, nothing wild (unless he likes some of my ideas, then I'll do something wild). My full time job is nothing gear-related.

In twenty years here, the number of actual NatSoc people I've seen measure in the dozen or so, and all but a couple former prison folk who I can't assume kept the affiliations afterwards.

Whew. I was afraid that would be just a bunch of corporate-speak smoke-up-your-ass horseshit.

I’m pretty sure it’s better than the brand and it’s IP disappearing. I don’t know how much better. Acquisitions can be pretty good (think the Dan Smith acquisition of Fender from CBS), pretty blah to bad (CBS Fender, Gibson from Norlin through Henry J), or fatal (Hamer, Opcode, Oberheim, Tacoma, etc.).

Tempted to grab a Whammy V to be sure I can get one, and this from a guy with a Ricochet and an IPS-33b (the OG “rack Whammy”). They may keep getting the orders sent to the same place, but if they redo the product line without institutional knowledge things could get worse before they have a chance to do better—pitch is a really particular thing.
