Hmm, well I'M apparently not in anybody's list. Maybe if I give myself the more appropriate handle of "Thredkilla". That's what I get for coming up with topics at 3:00 am with a sick wee one talkin' in her sleep all night. Carry on!

I enjoy so many peoples posts here, I couldn't even think of a top 3.

There are the people that make me laugh, the ones that make me think, the ones who have great advice on life, the ones who have great advice on gear, the ones who build the gear, the ones who post wonderful demo clips and the ones who just post clips of their wonderful playing.

Lots of good folks here.

"Profitably" in the sense that it would prove to be time well spent; I would learn some things, maybe you would too, we'd talk about all the great players we dig, and maybe we'd sidle up next to a couple of beautiful babies and put the gear talk away!

Sounds like a good time to me. I am always up for learning new things, talking gear and especially looking at some beautiful babies!

You know where a good place to meet up would be?

Vegas baby!......Vegas!

SgtThump

10-30-2009, 11:32 PM

actually, I'm gonna take a stand and nominate John Suhr (aka Husky). The fact that the president and founder of one of the most innovative and successful small companies in the industry is even on here at all seals the deal as far as I'm concerned.

Ya know what? I was actually thinking this to myself earlier this week. I forgot what it was about, but I recently read a post from him that was very friendly and professional. Now I'm not an expert on friendly and professional, so take that for what it's worth. :)

But really, I've talked to him once or twice over email many years ago and a tiny wee bit here on the board and he definitely comes across as a great guy.

soulmap

10-31-2009, 05:54 PM

Gimme your three favorites, and why. It seems like it is handier sometimes to just check what a few of your well respected peers are talking about than to just skim over thread upon thread ad nauseaum. Mine are Kimock (no explanation necessary, the man is a music, gear and theory guru who always has interesting insights and good useful knowledge, as well as more esoteric notions about this obsession of ours), followed by Soulmap, who is a local lifelong picker here in Tallahassee who I just really respect as a player with a unique style and good, genuine person (from what I know) and Fuchsaudio, who built my ODS30 and knows his shiite inside and out (though I've never had to personally contact him with amp troubles :) ).

Your turn!

Wow - thanks Ryan! That's esteemed company; Kimock - I love his sense of humor. Krosser has a broad range of music and ideas and he presents them in an even handed manner. witchita posts some great music.
many, many others have posted useful gear reviews, provided great sources, sold cool pickups, hipped us to amazing music (special tip o the hat to jimfog for the live Stones!), shifted my perspective, cracked me up...

It's amazing how many knowledgeable folks are willing to share their true passion and esoteric knowledge...and even care for each other here in some strangely cyber-buffered, but genuine way.

thanks :YinYang

oh, and a special shout out to the mods who keep things rolling and add - each in their own, inimitable way :beer

Thank you so much guys! I truly appreciate the kind comments!

And I'm right there with you TNJ - you are also among my list, along with JazzandMetal?, GAD, and so many others.

I like when Jimfog steps into a conversation as well...gives me a chance to test my "positive powers!" Haha! I'm just pokin' at you brother...

And...I also think its cool that there are so many builders and music biz guys in here who are willing to share their experiences and advice - I can't tell you how much I've learned from Jason Lollar in regards to tone (although he's been pretty quiet lately) and Vince Cunetto is a nice guy as well.

And last, I have to give some specialized props to Tomo - what a great player and all around genuinely positive guy. I'd be honored to sit down with him and pick his brain for awhile!

I couldn't do it - with 3,047,836 posts and 53,555 member, the task was too daunting. I'm thankful it's unlikely I'm on anyone's list - too much pressure I tell ya! I guess that's what separates the men from the mice tho'.

Actually I think a community like this is made by the diversity of it's members and the wide scope of views. People come and go, topics wax and wane but there's always something going on. That said, I do appreciate those who take the time to distill their thoughts and stimulate the conversation, those who's views are decidedly off center and those who make me smile. Props to you all!
