I do not go to any other guitar forums much, I find they are all about attitude and full of posers, this place is not about playing so when someone post up a video or sound file it is usually a real example of their work, and we accept it no mater how good or how bad it is. That is true, not like the stuff I used to get t other forums which was a lot of ripped off stuff posing as someones work, or if someone put his real stuff up there and he was not as good as Satch, he was ripped to pieces.
So I stopped visiting them long ago
I do go to a couple of Jeep sites, I am a CJ fanatic and own 2 CJs that are over 40 years old. So I go for the support to keep them in good shape and running
I started coming here to learn to build a guitar, I decided that I wanted what I wanted, not the current production model from a company who is driven by sales.
I got addicted by all the GAS, I also love the way guys here help each other, Most of the raging is tongue and cheek. It seems to be a good site where we respect others opinions, I mean, we do a bit of bashing but overall we respect others not agreeing with us.
I love the monthly contest with the Axes, and love everyones comments, I also like the monthly sound files contest, though I still need to figure out how to use the mixing program I got on this laptop.
