    if the "authority" is lucky he gets to make someone else feel inadequate, which is an important thing... right?
    Yes. I think that's about the size of it.
    Thankfully, we don't get too much of that sort of thing on here. Over in the good old US of A on the other hand....

    Agreed, and to be honest every time I point that stuff out I wonder if that's me :D - Here's how I convince myself I'm not :)

    An expert in something, adamant that his view is the correct world view, kinda suggests a lack of repeated exposure to the thing he's an expert of, I look at a clock maybe 20 times a day - and the time is always different, the instance I look away it's changed...

    Imagine I looked at a clock once, many days ago and then went around professing it was 3pm with utmost confidence if ever asked about the time? People would learn not to trust my opinion.

    History is reinterpreted and rewritten, scientific research is over-turned, improved or shown to have limits.. all the time... by experts.. as are trends, fashions, mores, popular opinion and common sense.

    So perhaps the person choosing to be an authority saying what is and what isn't on a guitar forum isn't so much of an expert - the real ones know to have a touch of humility in order to maintain the edge on their skills. Another pointer to that is, the role of fallibility in being good at something... the only time to exercise a complete lack of doubt is when doing a thing.. so maybe the person is an expert in inflating themselves on the internet like a bull-toad (as they have no doubt of that) and not at the thing they're explaining (which seems impervious to adaptation - being mired in dogma.

    In describing that I'm trying to square it off with some proper experts here who sometimes seem a bit thorny, and I don't know if it works :D



    A sig-nat-eur? What am I meant to use this for ffs?! Is this thing recording?

    I see Stuart's making space for a new guitar..


    That Wilkinson pickup is a good un but if you get a chance try a Mojo P90 in it.
