User Group Day - Accounts, Impressions and Photos

[Evan Skopp]

Unfortunately, we didn't get an official video of the jam. But there were a lot of camera phones pointed toward the stage that night. So maybe someone will show up with some footage.

[Dirtbagg]

No Evan, thank YOU, and Seymour, and MJ, and Cathy, and Dewi, and everybody!

ditto on that

[Dirtbagg]

Oh yeah - I forgot to mention!!!!! This is when Seymour was saying "Aceman, from now on, you can have any gloss you want."

Aceman you also forgot, that Evan was trying to get Bruce Kulick to show up. but he was on the road.

I have pics that will come soon.

Also with my liberator in mey Strat I have me self-wound TB-4 installed

The table of Duncan Goodies was just fantastic. All kinds of neat things. I picked up a JB - which i have never owned, and for $28, I think I'll be putting a Blackout in my Vendetta project!

I talked you in to buying the blackout and you talked me into buying a blackout.

However I don't have a guitar to put it into yet

Bit late to the party, but I had an awesome day at the factory. Couldn't stay for the jam unfortunately, exact opposite of the last UGD. Couldn't have come at a more perfect time, either - getting off the active kick and now have literally nothing but Duncans in any of my electrics.

All at UGD - picked up a chrome-covered Demon that went into the neck of my Tele, a PGb that's in the neck of my Stinnett, wound an Alt5 w/A5 mag for the bridge of the Stinnett, and have been absolutely dumbfounded by how good the A2P in the bridge of my Schecter sounds. Was expecting lower output, not so aggressive, clear under low gain but muddy/loose under high gain but that's just not the case at all. The thing has a ton of balls and really rewards heavy handed playing, but also retains clarity at high gain settings and just has a general "sweetness" to it that I love.

Bummer, the jaguar pickup I wound did not work, However, the "59" that I purchased at the "garage sale" sounds great in the neck of my PRS santana SE...This was truly a wonderful experience. Glad some pictures have been posted...Thanks again to everybody!!!

[Aceman]

I hope someone has a vid of the Green Onions jam...perhaps I'll check the YouTube.

[BloodRose]

yeah, I agree... Im going to the dean one this year if I have to walk.. (gotta get on the list first I suppose)

[BloodRose]

Looks like it was a great time. I wish I could have went. Seeing Warren there is awesome. I would have been starstruck for a little bit. He's one of my guitar heroes.

Me too! I mean, meeting Seymour and MJ and Warren?? <<<< Plop, Baby cow is born>>>

So, Warren was just there hanging out?? Prolly trying to score some swag.. hahahahah

Yet I couldn't get Evan to slip me a couple of charged magnets...Must have been the difference in time zones.

cool pics, wish I coulda been there to meet everyone and say hey to a few living legends!

[Franknfilms]

Nice pics wish I could have been there. Although, I didn't recognize anyone. For some reason I was expecting to see Gene Simmons, a guy in a green mankini, chewbacca with a guitar, redneck jason voorhees, or at least the the huge breasted girl who is changes into another girl each and every day. I think it should be mandatory to show up looking like your avatar.
