New guy about to try a nailbomb...
« on: May 26, 2005, 01:26:41 AM »
shhh don't tell the others over at the seymour duncan forums but Ben (Twilight Odyssey) raved about his miracle man so much that i'm going to give a nailbomb a try in one of my my alder body/maple neck strats to try an fatten it up.  This should be a good choice for a punk/metal player looking for a nice full thick sound that's still articulate and not mud....right?

only problem is, i seem to be getting errors when i try to use the online shop to buy it.  i keep getting "this page cannot be displayed" errors for some reason when i try to checkout.

anyway, i just wanted to say "HI" to everyone and introduce myself (you can blame TO for me being here haha j/k) and give the BK guys the heads up about a possible problem with the online ordering.

What kind of computer are you using? I have a mac, and I had a few problems. I downloaded a copy of Netscape and it worked, worth a shot. Of course it could always be a server hiccup somewhere.

Welcome :D

Ol, our web dude, is revising the shop as we spec to make it MAC friendly.

Thanks for the recommendation TO and to all of you who are helping to spread the word about BKP around the world. :D

Hi Mike,
You could also check out the Players section for some clips, and Harmony Central for nothing but raving reviews on Bare Knuckles. :)

Hi Mike,

As Tim said, we are developing a new shop which will iron out the 'niggles'.  I am glad you found a work around though.

Welcome to the Forum! :-) :drink:

Yes. Mainly because I use it! :-)
The new shop will be tested in as many browsers as possible.

Firefox rules! Surfs great, blocks powerups, never downloads anything without my permission, never had a virus,trojan or spayware since I use it. And it's free!

And it's a big middle finger to Bill Gates! :$%&#:

FireFox is the only way to IMHO. It's also a cracking read by Craig Thomas and a dodgy film starring Clint Eastwood!  :lol:

Great browser though.  :D
