Emperor, not aggy, but fair 'nuff.

TB is great when there are solid discussions. What kills me is the abundance of "what is the best...", "what are your settings...", and muse/tool/muse/muse threads.

Also, they don't throw money at my feet. They stuff it down my pants.

Ryan;

Are you sure you don't have TB confuzzled with a bachelorette party you worked the other night?

Yesh. He's a happy camper when he gets fed.

No way! Those chicks sent me home with no money. I guess they didn't like my skinny body and chubby midsection...

Here are the reasons I don't like TB today.

Clubs...sigh. Clubs are the stupidest idea that has ever been thought up and who ever did initially think it up...well they just need their nuts kicked in. What is the fucking point? I just don't get it. Does it give you a bigger internet schlong to have a certain bass or pedal? I get praising builders (God knows I get fap happy on here sometimes) but it seems like some of the threads are over board. I believe that some on TB would literally blow these builders if they had the opportunity. How's that for a creepy thought?

I love Chicago Lakland basses. I actually got to see a template from the original neck and headstock design (which Fender nixed because the lower portion of the headstock was too curved like Fender's headstock,...you can see where Dan changed it to the more triangular shape). I also got to see the drawing for the bridge he was going to do but instead decided to go with the current oval shape. Apparently Darrin (my boss) and Dan are well acquainted,...Darrin actually provided a lot of BEM for the low serial # Laklands.

Skylines on the other hand? While I admire that Dan wants to reach a working musicians market,...those basses are a little silly (albeit the savior of Lakland). I can't in good conscience buy an $800-$1500 import (unless it's from Germany). Those Skylines certainly aren't worthy of a club IMO,....but meh. I've found club threads to be somewhat useful in gathering information,...but I certainly am loathed to be a part of any club (back in '06 I was a little more naive).

To the TB OP,....cool story bro

IDK,....after talking to moderation (and getting 4 PMs in response including some from Admin) I got the go ahead to post a link to the "Reverb for Japan" Ebay Giving Works auction that has been stickied on ILF for the past week. If you play your cards right you can operate on TBFX without hassle. TBFX definitely redeems itself sometimes.

That said,...this is kinda lulzee.

FYI, there is no Dan anymore...he had to sell out. Horribly unprofitable.

I have no problem with the Skyline stuff, a friend has a JO5 that is probably the lightest, best sounding 5 string jazz I've ever played. The Chicago basses were/are nice, but they were way overpriced in the market...especially before they started making their own pre's and pickups.
