    I must admit, I generally find it less reactionary than this forum. Genuinely.

    And I love this place, and have been here from the start
    My thoughts too to be honest. 
    The fx section is generally good and non argumentative. 

    This place on the other hand loves a witch hunt with a pitch fork. The guitar section on here is quite frequently filled with bollocks and handbags at dawn.
    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

    I find the digital & modelling forum on TGP is a bit more level-headed and open minded than the others on there. 

    This place sometimes reminds me a bit of another UK forum Singletrack World, just swap the bikes for guitars. I stopped posting there because it just felt like a hub for smug, pedantic unhappy middle aged men. Not quite so bad here but sometimes it can get like that!

    Unless you're gay. And then somehow they all go a bit Westboro on you!

    Bye!

  • I hang around on TDPRI from time to time ( part of the same group now as TGP) and it's all helpful and informative but if you do more than dip in it soon becomes apparent that there's a hard core of moany old men, like it is here, so I imagine TGP is much the same. 
    TGP used to get some well known figures, their reviews got quoted in ads and there was a sense of it being top dog in the world of guitar forums. But I think those days are largely gone. 

    Tipton is a small fishing village in the borough of Sandwell.
