That's cool. I'd love to met some of the people on this forum. Would definately have to break out the guitars and jam too. What I'd really like is to meet some of the people who worked at MXR. They were an hour from where I live. I'll eventually track a few down. Besides schematics and personal notes, I bet they designed some good stuff that never made it into production. And probably some great stories too.

You are so right ansil. I have met some really nice people and definately been presented with an opportunity to offer myself as a person, on much more of a level than i would otherwise.

I have certainly had some amazing discussions via the PM and in the chat rooms. I wish we could utiliize the chat function more, but i will settle with what i can get.

I live in Avondale Arizona btw, if anyone lives near phx... perhaps we could chat sometime, or grab some lunch.


appreciatively,
sic

Yeah man, the coolest thing is that age boundaries seem to fall away. I'd like to meet quite a few of the guys here but they're halfway around the world from where I live :twisted: I gotta get a holiday to the USA and Brazil and stuff :D

Very cool Ansil..
I've only met (off this forum) DaveFX (who just left my area) and Alf Hermida... both of which are VERY cool people.

It's nice to meet other forum-dwellers - after hanging out here for a while, you really kind of get to know the other guys (and gals).

yeah Ben.. not many, but there are..

I haven't seen her around here in a while, but Kate used to hang around a lot.  A very cool person with probably one of the largest stompbox/effect collections in the world.

I'm sure there are more who lurk, too...

Yes Kate has been absent quite some time now, I figured her to be back by now, she's got a huge FX collection. Anybody hear from Kate recently? Kate?
