"I must say that your site has saved me countless hours - while also proving to be a huge time sink. I found myself spending inordinate hours going down the various links and fantasizing about buying all the different guitars that I encountered in my surfing that originated from your site. Today, I purchased a Taylor 814C acoustic... While I was in the market specifically for an acoustic this month, your site led me to spend many evenings looking at the various vintage LP Jrs, Rick 360s, VOX AC/90 and the like that I wish to add to my collection in the coming year. A colleague of mine is also spending a few hours a day searching for his ideal guitar (pre-70 Rick 360/12) through various sources he met as a result of your web site. I'll be a frequent visitor and will be sending many friends to your site."
Steve Fowler, Sr. Vice President, Operations, The 3DO Company
