Creamy Dreamer clone on eBay.

The name-calling is sort of odd and unnecessary, but the underlying claims are often thought-provoking. So I would hate to see the threads or the thread-writers go away, but maybe that's just me.

If we can all have different views on the best guitar tone, why expect it to be otherwise with ethics? If I can say that I don't care much for wahs (sorry, I just don't) without offending anyone (I hope), should it be any different with some controversy over the amount of "yourself" that has to be part of a do-it-yourself project? There seem to be good, rational arguments on either side of a lot of these issues. And Aron seems pretty clear that there's a lounge or PM if things get too far off track anyway. 

Just a thought. Have a great Monday everyone 

It's easy to read more into it without hearing vocal inflection, but I didn't think anyone was getting mad or calling names really...I dunno. 

I honestly wasn't being mad, just opinionated!

The fact that he used the GGG board makes the likely scenario that he found out what a CD was, and realized he could build it with that board and did so.  That's what I thought he was "lying" about.

I apologize if I have come across as hostile myself... but frankly I'm not following the logic. It's a modded BMP. The PCB(whole kit actually) is a convenient way to build a BMP.

If I dance and it rains, does that mean dancing makes it rain? Of course not! There's absolutely no connection between the 2.  And at least in that case, I can see how someone might think there is, but not doing a layout implying there was no reverse engineering? That's even more far fetched(IMHO). Maybe there's something I missed?

I simply stated what I thought was the likely scenario.  Just my opinion.

I remember seeing a EH BMP board that looked very similar to the GGG layout.

The creamy dreamer's pcb also is the same size and shape(it's also green). What's that say about the actual layout? Nothing. If you're going to insinuate theft of IP, a little evidence would be in order. Hard evidence, since that's a hard accusation.

I'm outta this thread.

Lounge please.


Seriously...JD has no problem with it, why should we ?

If I build some FF's using General Guitar Gadgets PCBs and sell them on eBay, am I suddenly some sort of jerk ? No...I'm well within my rights. The CD is no longer made, and he's not saying that it "is" a CD, only a replica of one. This is quite different than the people selling "fake" ZVex pedals.

I'm not saying theft. If the GGG was modeled after a EH BMP board that's not theft, that's reference. I just saying that the eBay clone could have been modeled after the EH board I've seen and not the other way around.
