Members badpenguin Posted September 25, 2020 Members Share Posted September 25, 2020 Me too. I love it, personalized spam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mrbrown49 Posted September 25, 2020 Members Share Posted September 25, 2020 Probably a phishing attempt. There have been a few posts recently from new users about how great their guitars were. No doubt alts of the person who sent us the pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Verne Andru Posted September 25, 2020 Members Share Posted September 25, 2020 Yup. And here I thought I was special... I first ran across Glarry over at Talkbass - peeps were gassing over their super cheap basses - so they are somewhat legit. Contrary to my normal inclination I did visit the site and it shows a bunch of sub $100 teles, strats, p and j basses, etc. They sell on ebay. I think it's a clever way to get people to talk about their stuff. Just like we're doing here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mikeo Posted September 25, 2020 Members Share Posted September 25, 2020 Got the same message. From Wendy. Oh La la. Why doesn't JC at Gibson send me a few guitars to review? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members badpenguin Posted September 25, 2020 Members Share Posted September 25, 2020 20 bucks a pop to talk about their products, OR after 4 posts, getting a guitar from them! BUT how do I review a product I haven't played yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1001gear Posted September 25, 2020 Members Share Posted September 25, 2020 Did they actually offer that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 6down1togo Posted October 3, 2020 Members Share Posted October 3, 2020 They make great, inexpensive guitar cases also. I've bought a couple when selling guitars without a case when a buyer insisted on one. Fast and free shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators daddymack Posted October 3, 2020 Moderators Share Posted October 3, 2020 no one is faulting their products, just their attempt to get our forumites to endorse them. That got her /them banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
