    Where's the option for BC Rich!?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,979 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    I think it's called "other"


  • Registered Users Posts: 519 ✭✭✭ThenComesDudley


    you forgot the esp too


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Has anyone seen the Encore imitation of a tele. It looks identical but has about as much tone as a brick with strings. That's one of the reasons I hate encore so much. They copy all of fender's designs and sell them at much reduced prices. Encore=****.

    Does anyone know anything about the brand Fenix, I got a bass a while ago fo r cheap and am trying to find out about it

    My Fav is 'Maverick' even tho i don't own one they look sooo sweet and they play like monsters

    Wheres the PRS's, oh wait were all poor


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Thye're not very common and I haven't seen one with a price tag. How much would one set you back?


  • Registered Users Posts: 767 ✭✭✭nesthead


    why did u even bother putting in squier and epiphone? theyre baby Fenders and Gibsons respectivley..........

    pfft no B.C.Rich, no ESP, no Fernandes!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,136 ✭✭✭Pugsley

    sorry to ask a stupid question, i'm new to the guitar game but why are squire and epiphone known as baby Fenders and Gibsons?

    thanx


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,638 ✭✭✭bombidol


    Squire are made by Fender, they are like a bottom of the line beginners Guitar. Epiphone are made by gibson too and are aimed at the beginner to intermediate player, depending on the model of course.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Epiphone are more expensive than Squier. They are also far better. Some epiphones are really good guitars, some measure up to the gibsons themselves.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,306 ✭✭✭NeMiSiS


    They do not.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 531 ✭✭✭juno75


    They do not.

    Damn right man.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    I said measure up to, not equal. That's not going to happen. I just said that about a seven-string Epiphone Les Paul I really liked.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 531 ✭✭✭juno75


    Oh, sound. Never heard of 7 string epip!

    My heart is with PRS. Da best planks on earth.

    only my humble opinion tho.

    or a very early Les Paul Junior- al la Bob Marley


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,306 ✭✭✭NeMiSiS


    Heh my gf once asked me "What would you save first me our your Les Paul if we ( 'we' heh she allready understood its far more than a plank of wood..a plank of wood is an 'it' or a 'thing') were both drowning?

    It took me two weeks to come up with an anwser..eventully I said "The Les paul..it would sink faster on account of it not having big boobs.." She has never forgiven me ;)

    I will be burried with the mother****er ! (or else cremated and put in shotgun shells..loaded into a shot gun and mounted above it..)

    Tom ;)

    I like the way you think:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    I will have mine cemented to the top of my stone coffin. It has to be stone so I can make people pissed off (Having to carry it) even after I'm dead. You can only imagine what I'm like now.... :ninja: :D

    shurely shome mishtake?


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Heh heh! You must have read the Sean Connery pisstake in Total Film!

    I'd edit the poll now that I've got loads more ideas from you people but I don't know if I can and I don't care enough to find out. Wait.... I'll try. No. I can't.

    By the way, would the dumb gob****e who voted for Encore please stop taking the piss and stop posting here.

    Also, would whoever mod's this place remove Epiphone, Squier and Encore from the poll and replace them with BC Rich, PRS, and ESP.
    That ought to silence all you little demons on my back!
