Members DesolationBlvd 1 Posted October 23, 2020 Members Share Posted October 23, 2020 Me neither, but trying a Plexi for the first time (in the form of the Studio Vintage), I understood how a lower-gain, more dynamic amp could be "played". I've most active on TGP for guitar and Gearslutz for synth. Muffwiggler is more modular-oriented, and VSE is rather slow these days. I begrudgingly use Facebook for gear sales and a local synth group. I prefer forums, and I'm not even 30. I'm a Boomer trapped in a Millennial body. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Members One-armed Alec 2 Posted October 24, 2020 Members Share Posted October 24, 2020 (edited) Not sure if I qualify as one of the gang, but I'm drawn back here every time I read that one of my old guitar heroes has died! In its heyday this place was absolutely buzzing... has seemed a bit of a ghost town any time I've dropped in the past decade or so... Still, nice to see some familiar old names in this thread - GilmourD, xStonr, Ancient Mariner, GAS Man, Kevman, Brian Krashpad... also just looked up jjpistols and watched some of his vids on FB I don't use social media much but I do watch guitar-related material on YouTube - lessons, gear demos, rig rundowns, interviews, etc. Seldom post on any forums but there are still a handful of decent guitar forums out there that are a good source for knowledge and experience. Cheers. Edited October 24, 2020 by One-armed Alec 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As you say, this place buzzed once, but those days won't return. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Members Loconzly 0 Posted October 29, 2020 Members Share Posted October 29, 2020 I used to be a regular here, but then spent about a decade at TGP. Nowadays, neither. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Members Roy Brooks 2 Posted November 17, 2020 Members Share Posted November 17, 2020 I reckon the last time I posted here was several years ago. Today somebody mentioned Harmony Central. So I decided to see if it was still here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Members bluesnapper 4 Posted November 22, 2020 Members Share Posted November 22, 2020 I've just checked in for the first time in.... years. Miss this place, used to surf it all day long when I worked a dead-end desk job with a lax web-use policy. Anyway, thread needs more guitars. Here's a pic of my main squeeze at the moment - "inherited" from my dad recently - he's alive and well, but mostly plays acoustic these days. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Members anti-flag193 1 Posted January 15 Members Share Posted January 15 Just came back on here a few days ago after 10+ years. I joined mid 2001 I think and left when this place fell apart years back, don't really remember what happened. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Members theManfromAlabam 2 Posted January 19 Members Share Posted January 19 I haven't been here in a coon's age, I left when it fell apart. Now I'm old and sickly, but I still love guitar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Members EPFudbutter 1 Posted January 25 Members Share Posted January 25 (edited) I responded to a similar thread in the effects section Used to be on every day in the later 90's and early 00's until everything seemed to go away here. Had three guitars when I started, 26 when I left Between this site and TGP, it seems like it cost me more money than the entire 39 1/2 years with the wife (so far) Edited January 25 by EPFudbutter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Members PintoMusic 0 Posted January 27 Members Share Posted January 27 Wow... apparently my ID still works... whoda thunk??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Members ballhawk 8 Posted February 17 Members Share Posted February 17 Wow. I just logged in out of curiosity and amazingly HC is still operating. My profile says that I joined in 2000 but I recall that our join date was reset around that time due to another site update (whoda thunk it). I remember the OLGA so my guess is I was active here around 1997!! No other forum can match what this place was. So sad. A toast to those who made this place great.

Members Sparky6string 0 Posted Friday at 08:13 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 08:13 PM I didn't know this place was still here. Hey fellas- I'm old now. I lurk at TGP and sometimes TDPRI. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
