Mhh alright. Would have been nice to see it go to the "family" here. Guess that ainīt happening. *old man grumble*

Just hope the chap is treating it well and if he is one who does that part of me is happy for him. ;)

It's really a shame the guitar didn't land in the family. After all we're BKP-ambassadors, a lot of us for many, many years.  :angry:

I don't really hate him. If its a draw then whoever wins is just sheer luck. Good luck to him and lets hope he doesn't just flog it off to the first bidder and instead plays the ar*e out of that guitar.

Thatīs my sentiment entirely, but brought to the point in a better way. I somehow am more of a sore "looser" here than usually, and the main thing is that I just donīt want to see such a thing going to someone who resells it and stuff, thus the hope for it going to the family, cause I know "we" would do it justice, now we donīt and that is what pains us a bit. Of course this is all petty and overstated here. I mean we hate him as much as we hate other pickup brands. ;)

If it goes to a good guy like you discribed all is alright, sides it rather still being me. ;)

Of course we don't hate... We're just a tad disappointed. But it would have given me a good feeling if that guitar went to one the good guys on the forum.

I'm not on facebook, but I did visit the announcement, and there was a pic of him - he looks like a player to me :smiley: ("how can you tell?" I can't, he just looks like a dude who wants guitars :grin:)

Yep, hope he enjoys it :smiley:

One thing I did realise/notice, though - there's a LOT more folks/activity on BKP's facebook page than there is on here now...

It does feel a little like the BKP facebook page is becoming "home", where the action is... which makes me feel a bit sad, considering the history of this place and the fact that some of us LOATHE facebook and are very unlikely to ever embrace it...

Still, things move on, I guess... :sad:

I kind of agree with Andy.

Its hard to be on facebook at work, and I don't really like how the facebook group/forum system works. Times change though, people have Facebook on their phones and I guess thats easier.

Anyway, I think Karl Stedman is a deserving winner, anything else would be silly :)

(I hate him as well though :) )

I hate Facebook because they sell their customers to other companies, maybe even to North-Korea when Kim is bidding enough.
