It happened in Canada, so who knows what the law would do in this case. Personally I think the guy had it coming. Cheating on someone with their best friend is about as low as you can get. Much worse in my eyes than selling his mic for peanuts.

My wife enjoyed the story too. :lol:

Sad to see it come to this. As others have said, the documentary could have been edited to make anyone look bad, but I can definitely see why Tweedy was done with him. That doesn't make it right to use his work without compensation though, if in fact that is really going on.

Yes, thank you! I've been getting TapeOp for free for many years now, and I really appreciate it. It's been sitting proudly on my toilet for probably a decade now. Your sponsors should be happy too, because I get most of my new gear info from your reviews/ads. It's really the best place for gear mak...

I can't decide whether I'm more excited for the CD's or for the Rock Band game. I know that's kind of poo poo'd by most musician types, but Rock Band is as close to jamming with my wife as I'll ever get, and therefore the closest I'll get to playing Beatles tunes with her. I bet it's going to be a l...

Don't know if anyone noticed, but this thread was started last September and received a monumental bump from the new guy. :lol:

I'm guessing this was supposed to be a joke because this is supposed to be super rare or great prices? I figured you were selling crappy, beat, off brand stuff for cheap. I thought jokes on April first were limited to the monkey farting on a cupcake video type websites. At least it wasn't a video o...

Prepal's database is more than borked. Their pricing is totally broken. They left it alone without updating it for several years and that so skewed the numbers, that you just can't trust for more than the vaguest of estimates that could be totally off. I wouldn't rely on those numbers at all. Though...

These things are so awesome. A studio I used to work at had one and I used it all the time. It has such a lush sound to it.

I just gotta say that one really does start to feel old with folks starting to call synths from the '90s "vintage". :) No kidding. Actually looking over these ads lately makes me feel old. All of the stuff that was popular when I was getting into recording is now worthless. Ah well, stuff has gotte...

I think spring reverbs are generally pretty over rated. My experience with them is that they sound like ass. Reverb is obviously something that's tough to duplicate. Outside of having a great space with natural reverb, or a plate, there's really not much out there in terms of analog reverb. You're b...

I have an MP20, which is the 2-channel version of this preamp. I've owned it since 2003 and replaced the Op-Amps with Burr-Browns. Great preamp. Whoever gets this is getting a great deal. $600 is a steal, and you can upgrade it with other Op-Amps as you can afford to do so. All ICs are socketed, so...
