I joined up when the old 'Radar site' ceased to function and I figured out that this place had been set up. 

I came here because as a perpetual beginner I am always in need of help and encouragement.  

I managed to sell some stuff when I needed to, I have met a couple of nice people as a result and  have taken a few recommendations from people here too.

Highlights: following Emps car threads!

I joined specifically to contact a member who had a guitar posted for sale some months earlier to see if they still had it - really glad I did as its a great forum full of interesting threads. I've also noticed our forum threads pop up in response to search engines questions in the past so should have joined earlier. I like that fact there appears to be little to no spam on here and just decent discussions. Well administrated and monitored! 

Back to that guitar that was off the market, a month or two later the guitar has been put back on the market and we have agreed a sale. cant wait!! might have to update my username now tho...

I’ve been a member for less than a day, joined to get some info about an old acoustic guitar that’s falling apart.
To early for me to suggest much about the site, maybe tell new users who’ve registered they can’t post until they’ve been approved - but that’s pretty obvious really.

I just joined and am wondering if Voxman is still around?

He used to have the best tips on the now defunct Valvetronix.net forum. Man am I bummed that tanked and no one saved the tips and tricks on that website. 

I have a Vox AD60 and it is a fun amp for my needs, jamming to songs in my music room! 

So I’m looking to get better at dialing the AD60s many tones in. 

Thanks and I’m really looking forward to getting a lot better in 2025 using my gear and as a musician!

Hi @Slowgoat and welcome to the FB. Yup, I'm still around!  . (I actually ran Valvetronix.net, originally with it's founder Laurent Peron and then on.my tod when Laurent stepped back) .

There was an archive page created that kept some info, but I think that's expired now too. However I might still have some saved stuff around from the tips and tricks section as I think I wrote most of it.
