I have been keeping watch over the forums page. I look everyday to make sure no one uses it for advertising or an out of bounds subject. We do have kids that look at this. Some of the people have been going a little over board on Res Pauls. Some at first had scathing comments on the ethical approach to me spot lighting them. I believe this is a subject that need to be addressed. Now these people are ordering the Res Pauls and complaining about everything of service to shipping to ETC. They are totally unaware of how to work with another culture. They have been expecting American Values and Service. Then they "Totally" go ballistic when their needs are not met. I put the comment below on the forum page. Then deleted it to put here. I do not like to interfere with the forums or comments. I put that page there for all of you (the guitar community) to communicate.
**********************************
I rarely put anything in on the comments page. BUT, I do monitor the comments everyday. I was going to write this (below) directly one member due to some comments he made.I think this needs to be addressed to everyone. I have literally heard horror stories about Chinese guitars. The reason I use this guy or put his name out is he does get the job done to the best of his ability shipping around the world. What I have found is we Americans forget that the rest of the world does not live, think, or have the everyday wonders we have. We literally snap our fingers and expect things to happen. We are spoiled. This guy does not have your education. He is not only trying to work with us but he has the rest of the world attitudes and languages to deal with also. Do you think he just deals with us.?You ever wonder why the E-mails are overly polite? Could you sell a guitar to a Norwegian. I'll make it easier how about a German. When you are dealing with the Internet you are dealing with different cultures. How do you know you did not deeply offend him--but he is still trying to make a sale! I am pointing this out to you and the readers. I have access to over twenty-five manufactures of Chinese guitars as of this day 2-17-09. I have been in contact with most of them. There is a reason he is the only one I will link too. If he rips anyone off he's gone and he knows it. The price he has offered for that Zakk Wilde Guitar "shipped" is the best price I have heard of. If you need more explanation take the time and make your E-mail as easy to understand as possible. Maybe even two to three times. "Be Patient." He is trying to work with you. People around the world do not work or live at our/your speed! I still can't believe his price. To cut this short I am going to write another Blog this weekend about this subject. I am about ready to start slapping my shoe on the table about our arrogance!

I waited to calm down before I wrote this.

Spelling and other grammer problems will be addressed.
