I found that on a CL ad. Guy was looking for $800. Said it was owned by a local "famous guy."You know, when YM wrote earlier in this thread that some would call him crazy for planning on buying a pair of Capodimonte lamps, I had to Google what the hell that was. I learned that these lamps are "famous for its moulded figurines and its decorative modelled flowers."
Kinda like this monstrosity.......
Tool? Im no tool. It's meaningless to say how much you'd pay for a peice of gear for unless income is known. A millionaire spends 3000 its nothing hardly missed, a guy that lives at home and only makes 1 hundred a week a part time job, well that shows much more sacrifice and drive to have something someone feels is extremely important. To the guy that posted the photo of the truck... bot sure what that was supposed to mean. But I'd rather not even have a car and have nice music gear if I had to choose between the two. And if I had kids, id make sure I spent every cent I had on myself before I died, I wouldnt want anyone to get any of my money, let them work for their own.
I see no reason to be secretive about ones income or status. If you don't wanna participate thats kool. But I disagree that this is a pointless thread. It's very relevant. So many threads are created about arguing over what peice of gear is better or how something may seem overpriced when brand x does "almost" the same thing for x amount less etc. Everyone has different priorities in life. I also plan to buy a pair of capodimonte lamps in a few months for $1,800.... many may think thats crazy for a decorative peice of furniture to light my room, but it's important to me. Fact is, a lot more people would own fractals right now outside of the people on this forum if fractals were only ten dollars a pop, I bet you 95 percent of all guitars would play exclusive with fractal if they were only ten dollars a pop! So you see, cost, and a persons priorities and importance a person places on things when it comes to choosing a peice of gear. Most honestly can't deny the fractal is the best on the market, the ones that dont have one either cant afford it or they simply dont value musical gear above other things in life to see fit to dedicate whatever the cost is to own one. From what people have replied on here so far, I gather if the axe fx 3 came out today at a price of seven thousand dollars, over half if this forum would never be willing to pay that. However, I would, even if it meant taking out a loan or getting a new credit card with a higher limit. Thats just the way I am. Im crazy like that. I don't expect the rest of yall to be like that, but it is interesting to see where yall draw the line on cost for the best of the best and the laws of dimi diminishing returns etc. Like would you pay a extra grand for something that could be proved better in some way but only peoplr like eric johnson could hear the difference with their golden ears... yes "i" would. Having the best is most important to me. Im also going to buy a $150 mogami 12 foot cable for my fractal when I get it next month, because again, I am not materialistic, I don't want a lot of things in life, but the few things I do want must be of the absolute best quality.
This thread is now pointless and childish. Admins: Please close it.
People that use the abbreviation tldr are not only victims of a dumbed down society with short attention spans and poor reading and comprehension skills, but they are crybaby losers most likely are a idiot born after 1974.
1. Actually 1971;
2. Your grammar is as reprehensible as your sentence structure;
3. You spent nearly 10% of your annual take-home on a rack unit. That makes guitar sounds. And it's the most important thing in your life, including family members. I'd ask who is the loser here, but this is too sad.
That's your worthless opinion dude. That's problem with America, lack of free speech these days. The thread is good, you jerks are just ruining with your off topic posts. If you don't like MY thread gtf out of it and go die in a fire, no one twisted your arm to read MY thread or post in it.
I think it's pretty obvious here that it's Romeo again on a fake account just doing what he does best, being an idiot. Please admins, close this thread and get rid of this guy again.
If the admins close this thread over this petty bs which isn't even my fault it only will go to further show how freedom of speech is on life support thesr days in America, as well as demonstrating fractal and cliff chase do not welcome everyone here to participate unless they fit in with these types of clicks here. Is this the pmrc or what up in here trying to silence everyones voice? This is ridiculous the way yall conduct your witch hunts on anyone that don't fit your group click mentality.
Ok, I do have to give him kudos for the PMRC reference. Touché.
freedom of speech is on life support thesr days in America
1. How much income do you make after taxes yearly, and are you the sole provider in your house, and if not how much does the other make yearly after taxes?
