since i'm here i thought i'd share a grover jackson story, back in 84?85?86? i think, i wanted a jackson bad!!!!! i wrote to grover via the company and asked if he wanted a 1960 fender stratocaster in trade for a custom jackson. to my surprize i got a phone call from somebody there on grover's behalf. i told him what i wanted (soloist/rhoads either one with three humbuckers, sharktooth inlay and floyd rose trem )and he said he'd get back to me. i get another call a couple of days later. guy on the phone says grover will give you a randy rhoads student model in red for it, no trem. well i was pissed and didn't..........................i still have the 1960 strat!

Re: GROVER JACKSON STORY............
I joined as an admin at the same time as the aforementioned dweeb. I totally redesigned the site, reorganized it, greeted every new visitor.
Dweeb-boy then started dissin Greg, and when I called him out on it - he started deleting posts from the admin-only forum to cover his ass. When I called him on THAT, he replied "Stop acting like a problem and I won't have to treat you like one."
I told him to shove his attitude up his ass. I don't take that shit from people who pay me, let alone some punk on an admin power trip.750xl, 88LE, AT1, Roswell Pro, SG-X, 4 others...
