Here's an unrelated suggestion, about the financials. Considering we seem to have more than enough to fund a replacement guitar for drawdeep.


We could go the percentage route, as suggested by Dave earlier. Or since we have more than enough, we could cap the donation amount per person to, say $15 (or whatever amount is sufficient to get the guitar), ie (guitar cost / number of contributors). I guess it's a bit more of an egalitarian approach, but since we have all the funds we need for the stated purpose, there really is no reason for someone to chip in any extra.


Did that make sense?

 

 

Yes this makes sense and is a fair way to do it too.

But in the end you will still have to use the same math and percentage problems to figure it out.

 

I definitely agree with the cap idea.

 

I think we can get plenty of money with 20.00 (max) and of course pledging less than that is still very appreciated.

 

So we can use BOTH ideas together.

 

20.00 cap(max ) sound good?

My God people, COUNT!

That total should be $890.. Before long, we could get him a Carvin =)

EDIT: Make that $905 with Tweedledee's contribution..

Yeap, we've got an Epi LP with a broken neck that's gonna need some TLC.. If I understand correctly, that guitar will become the next giveaway around here. We'd all love it if you'd do the honors Atrox =) Drawndeep got hosed in a trade, and we're funding him a bigger, better, faster guitar for all the BS.. Ned thinks we're all being scammed, bless his little troll heart =)

Too many pages. What is going on here and how can I help? Any repairs or assembly need being done? I'll offer those services for free



guy trades a bass for an epi. sends bass, guy with epi starts making excuses. eventually sends epi packed in newspaper with broken neck. more excuses ensure. chances of insurance are slim cause of the packing.

so.. now people are donating to replace said epi. enough cash has been raised to pay for the epi 3x over.

i guess thats where we're at now :)

Sounds like a plan. I can repair the broken guitar for a future giveaway and I can also do a super duper set-up (fret level/polish/ nut work, all that crap) on the new guitar so it's absolutely perfect if that's what is wanted.

Excellent, looks like we're drop shipping it to Atrox's house!



Bacon, was your amp taken in a violent or fraudulent way? If so, it just might be covered under HCEG's insurance policy lol



Well, sorta but not really...eBay...that's sort of fraudulent isn't it? :lol:

No, I'm saving up for something, and sold my Vox AD30VT to help fund it.
