FAQs updated - October 2009

I've decided to allow trade adverts as a trial, as long as their directly relevant to guitar collectors and identified as trade. I'll be keeping an eye on it and won't hesitate to reverse this decision if it gets spammy!

If you're a luthier, guitar tech, refinisher etc., feel free to introduce yourself and advertise your services.

UPDATE AUGUST 2010

We're getting a few people who sign up and make pretty-much meaningless posts in order to get links in their signature.
I can spot such things a mile off (I have a lot of experience in SEO), so if your only reason for being here is to get backlinks, please don't bother. I routinely delete signatures and/or ban users, so your effort will be wasted.

If you're interested in guitars and genuinely take part in the conversations then I've no problem with signature links, within reason.

Just trying to keep the forum clean and relevant...
