james90 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 No idea - I'd kinda forgotten that you hadn't gotten your amp yet I'm guessing this has something to do with the Satellite man's angry post a while back, although I heard from a reputable source () that there wasn't anything like a cease-and-desist involved. This adult male individual on TGP made a good point actually. That instagram post is from D-r-e-w and E_r_i_c, so maybe there was a falling out with the third guy. I think I might email now. Hopefully it won't bounce back. (edit: It went though, but I'm not sure I'll get a reply) What does the Satellite man have to do with this? His company name is Satellite, isn't it? What did these men do wrong besides not ship my amp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I believe so...you can see it being thrown around a fair few times during yes please on the hullabaloo DVD. Squier neck and all. It did have the grey tape around the edges like the peavey, but I wouldn't be surprised if that was the same guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did these men do wrong besides not ship my amp? Satellite man accused them of ripping off his design for the White Higher Fidelity amp (which Drew owns), which he ripped off from Fender but apparently owns the copyrights to? Idk. Seems like a long shot, but I think the Eric guy did work with him at one point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, nope. I was there. He played PIB on the Delorean. The only trasher he used was during Bliss, last song of the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it that guitar? or just one of the ibanezezez? according to musewiki, he did throw a guitar into the crowd that day. It's probably not the gig in the two pictures above though, as they left the stage with everything scattered on the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nerd herd Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 This guitar is custom made from Gibson body and fender squire neckLooks more like an Ibanez FR body. I can't think of any Gibsons that are that shape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Those weren't around back then as far as I know. It's a yamaha pacifica 120SD body - same as the modified one he had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk. Seems like a long shot, but I think the Eric guy did work with him at one point. Fair enough. Also, website domain has been changed to spell revival backwards... I imagine he still got my email, but I don't know if he's trying to prevent future emails since I can no longer email that same address... Also https://twitter.com/revivalamps I don't have a good feeling about this at all. I wonder if it's too late for a chargeback... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk. Seems like a long shot, but I think the Eric guy did work with him at one point. I suggest you find a new role model. He may seem like a "heck of a guy" but like most amp builders that are a "heck of a guy" they just take your money, lie about delivery dates, and eventually disappear off the face of the earth. It's ok though, I'm getting my money back. You might want to watch the video in the above post to take your mind off of this whole episode. Edit: And there is no video above because this is a new page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidious911 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Why do you think they are partnered with Apple to give away their album for free. Apple probably just paid them a flat out price based on last album sales to give away the new album free on iTunes. U2 probably said well shit, we wrote a crap album lets take guaranteed money.

I wouldn't buy a 2014 for the stupid 12th fret inlays, and I wont buy 2015 for that ugly script. exactly what I was thinking. I'm more likely to buy a 2014, but I still doubt I will. Also, this looks nice until you look at the headstock Not a fan of the nut either. It's probably a way of getting the nut work more consistent, but then if they have a plek, it shouldn't be a problem anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh dear god... Although, I do agree with widening the fretboard. It's the main thing I don't like about gibsons, the fretboard feels too narrow to me.

It's the main thing I don't like about gibsons, the fretboard feels too narrow to me. I don't know if there's a standard nut width (seems they vary on the different models) but I can understand that. The scale length also makes a difference for me... LUCKILY they made a limited run of 25.5" scale LPs for only 7 grand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
