The Gear Page. Great forum if you want to geek out over guitars, amps, whatever.

It's not a compliment, Drew.
Living here in Nashville, everyone is an artist…………..an I am Michelangelo…wow
sarcasm
Nope. Definitely not a compliment.
Yeah...we get it and apparently the sarcasm in my post went over your heads.

I see the insecurity is still strong on this forum...
Somebody posts an opinion that the regulars don’t like and they all close ranks. It’s sadly predictable, and predictably sad. Feel free to add me to all your ignore lists LOL!
It was great that Paul got John Mayer but he really needs to nab another prime sub-AARP level guitar god for a model. I'm sure all of you boomers are loving this but the guy is darn near 70 and does not have mass appeal anymore.
You and others seem to think that this forum exists for everyone to high five each other, slap each others butts, and worship everything Paul does. I can guarantee you that I've had far more PRS guitars go through my possession than you have.
PRS has done some commendable stuff in regards to moving some things forward. But, on the whole, PRS is very much a retro themed guitar company now. I don't know what your definition of "forward thinking" is. To me, the Parker Fly was an example of that.
I'm not even a fan of Herman Li. I don't really like his playing much at all. But, if you think he is a no talent punk, then that shows how much you really know about guitar.
Then I'm guessing you aren't much of a musician, nor can probably play the guitar very well.
Bob hit the nail on the head. He put into words what I was trying to sum up in my thoughts but couldn't find exactly the right terminology. Insecurity is a great word. You guys react similarly to certain comments on this forum like if someone spoke ill of your significant other. That's not really a healthy thing. Honestly, and I'll get flack for this, I've never had the feeling here that I was interacting with very many great players/musicians. That's not to put anyone down. The reasons you like PRS guitars are you own. Heck, I wouldn't begrudge anyone who just bought them to stick on a wall and never played them. None of my business. You helped to keep people employed. But, if that's your insecurity and it's causing you to be...well...jerks, then it is my business and I'll call you out on it. I do know for a FACT that there are some great players here and predictably they tend to be the more level headed ones, or, just nice. I get PMs on other forums asking me why I keep posting here, as if I must be crazy or something. Maybe a glutton for punishment.

Hey! I resemble that remark!
Nice post. And you wonder why you're so popular around here! I'd love to hear your playing. I'm sure you'd blow us all away with your mad skilz, what with you again insulting players, and with the end of your post indicating that you're a credit to the forum and we're lucky to have you here. Here's the problem though, for me at least. Even if you ARE a bad ass, it's only the poor taste in insulting others skills that I'd take issue with. I'm sure you're well aware when you even say something like that, that you aren't going to make any friends. Even amongst those who can play.
Being "level headed" or "nice" has nothing to do with responding to insults. And for your "insecurity" comments, guess what. I am offended by your comments about other players ability, but not because it applies to me, just because it's in poor taste.
