Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | The Atlas is the only Breedlove I have played that I actually liked.
This is when they first came out 4-5 years ago so I don't know if the newer ones are any different or not. |

I thought that was pretty unique. |

Dark Bar are you in S. FL?

Location: Southeast FL | Wow SLATF. I guess we wont know where you are from. I am all for everyones privacy. I did not ask for specifics. I did not mean to compromise any members locations by my prying questions. I personally traded my nightvision goggles for my latest Ovation but I wont register the serial numbers ever. You never know, those Taylor guys could get a hold of my info. lol. :rolleyes:
On a semi serious note, I was only curious who I might find "bottom feeding" on my local CL after DB posted two different links in my area.

Don't worry about asking a member's location. If a member doesn't want to respond, they won't. Most here have no issues with other members knowing where they live. Hell, I'll send ya a link to my front door. I'll even leave the light on fer ya!
BTW, thanx for the reminder... I need to ops check my NVG (been a while...)... I'll need to turn off the porch light though... |

YOU choose to respond or not. YOU choose who you give away your address to. Just pointing out that it's not cool to post privileged information deliberately withheld by someone else on their profile. With all of the guitars you apparently have, I would think you might be more careful about who knows exactly where you live, and when you will (or won't) be there... |

Blues Sailor did not give away any info that has not been posted here before. He knew that when he posted.
As to where I live, when I'm present or not, etc., I would bet a mutant zombie would hit here before anyone tracking my purchases and OFC postings.
BTW, with the 'O' market so depressed and all the 'O' nay-sayers abounding, this is a low priority target.
Besides, I have a deterrent on the premises...

Location: Boise, Idaho | Not long after I started on this board, Noah called me and we had a nice long chat. Then Psychobunny, under a different name, called or emailed and I picked him up at the airport, took him to my house to show him my guitars. He used to post the town he lived in and I'm sure if you could find the town, you could find him.
I met Stonebobbo out by the Boise airport and met a bunch of others at gh1's house in Portland.
I've been to several other members' homes and have always been welcomed. I hope that no one has felt I was intruding upon their privacy. Perhaps the ultimate was Karl meeting me in Rottenburg, Germany with a couple of Adamases for a four hour jam session. Although some in our group thought that was rather strange, most thought it was great. So far I haven't met an OFCer that I didn't like. If anyone else wants to find me, you are welcome to do so. |

Mark, so help me, I'd love to get out to visit ya! C'on time travel...
BTW, is the Kokanee run over yet? |

So far I haven't met an OFCer that I didn't like. I have. But that's ok, too. |

Location: Texas | SLATFATF's reaction to revealing anyone's personal info here was perhaps a little extreme, but this IS a totally open forum…
I suspect that non-registered lurkers often outnumber registered members who, in turn, outnumber active posters?
Perhaps we do tend to get complacent sometimes…

If nothing else, we're consistent! :D ;)

Now I'm seeing black helicopters flying above my house and strange cars parked 2 doors down, guys in shades sitting inside pretending to read The Economist. |
