Happy New Year!

And take BP's advice. I used to write a lot of music on a keyboard workstation and I don't even play keyboards.

Hi folks,


I seem to have noticed that when listing their equipment in their sigs, people in the bass section do not mention non-EBMM basses they might own.

If I'm right, is this a courtesy issue? I saw no rule about this.
I've started to wonder if there are any cultural aspects here. See, in the forum of my own shop's site (in Norway) for example, people would discuss my stuff as well the competitors'. Like EBMM, I have no reason to fear any possible comparison. Badmouthing of _any_ brand would immediately be corrected by other forum users.

Anyway, am I right in assuming this is about being courteous towards EBMM?

best,
bert

There are non-EBMM basses?


Hey, somebody had to say it.....

It's a courtesy issue. There is no rule about what you can list in your signature but hey, it's the EBMM forum.

None worth mentioning, anyway.

 

[BassTractor]

Thanks for confirming, folks!
Courtesy it is then.

best,

Is it OK to discuss the offshore basses like the Sterling Ray34?

 

[bovinehost]

Yes, but if you need help with an issue, those basses and guitars are not produced (obviously) in SLO.
