I honestly didn't know if I would ever reach this milestone. What became abundantly clear in my first few months of being a member here was how many true professionals (musicians, guitar and amp technicians, etc.) were members. I don't fall into any of those categories by any stretch of the imagination, and wondered many times what I had to contribute. I love building amps and working on guitars, but I'm not in the same galaxy as some of the pro's here. I also discovered something that is quite rare in online forums; people here actually have respect for each other. That is hugely important to me. I've belonged to other forums where pissing matches and one-upmanship were the norm. Such a waste of time. I don't see mods and admins constantly intervening and banning people because of bad behavior. That is so unbelievably refreshing.

So I would just like to thank everyone here from the owner to the guy who empties the wastebaskets and mops the floors for allowing me to take up bandwith. I think after all these years I've finally found an internet home.

Congrats FR. Like you. I’m also not in the same league as many of our fellow members here. We have some serious talent here and I’m not one of them. Many of us can be pretty self deprecating from the bedroom player like me to folk playing in bands, doing studio work for a living, etc. Robert reminded me that I have an ability to make music regardless of how well. The vast majority of the population cannot do what even the least of us can do.

And yes. This forum is unlike any other on the inter web. People here generally care for each other. No cork sniffers. Regardless of talent. When someone opens themselves up and posts a recording….. nothing but praise and good thoughts.

So welcome to ambassadorship. Let the naming begin
