You are cordially invited
to join John, Bud, and me, as well as Billy Phelps,
Al Brisco, Bobby Black, Bobby Bowman, Tony Prior, Patty Phelps,
and many other special guests in our Booth

Come listen ~ come jam ~ play and test the Carters live!</CENTER>

We have made significant improvements to the already-great-sound of the BCT Carter Steel Guitars. If you have not played a 2004 Carter, manufactured in the last 60 days, you owe it to yourself to try them out for yourself at Scotty's. We are sure you will be very pleasantly surprised!

<CENTER>Check out these truly great values that we'll be offering!</CENTER>

In addition to many standard PRO model Carter Steel Guitars with our BCT Technology, we will also have several of our Custom Shoppe offerings. And, we will be showing our new LIGHTWEIGHT road and flight case with recessed wheels for D-10 and S-10/DB Carters (more models to come later)! This new flight case comes standard with all Custom Shoppe models and is an option to add on other pro model Carter orders.

. . . ALL new Carter PRO models purchased or ordered (paid in full) at this show will include:

<UL>[*]All mica-covered S-10's will include your choice of either:
<UL>[*]a FREE Goodrich potless LDR volume pedal
or
[*]a FREE Peterson VS-II Strobe Tuner[/list]
[*]all other mica-covered Carters (S-10/DB, S-12, D-10) will include YOUR choice of either:
<UL>[*]a FREE Peavey Nashville 112 amp
OR
[*]BOTH a FREE Goodrich potless LDR volume pedal
and
a FREE Peterson VS-II Strobe Tuner[/list]

[*]all Custom Shoppe models will include your choice of #1 or #2 or 3:
<OL>[*]FREE Goodrich LDR pedal AND a FREE Peavey Nashville 112
[*]FREE Peterson VS-II Strobe Tuner AND a FREE Peavey Nashville 112
[*]FREE Peavey Nashville 1000
[/list][/list]

This even includes shipping (in the 48 states)!
This will make your show purchase savings even greater and more convenient
(especially if you are flying in and prefer we ship to you).

We will be powering the Carter booths with the new Peavey Nashville 112, Peavey Nashville 1000, and Fender Steel King amplifiers, as well as the Goodrich LDR volume pedal. Come on by and check us out!

NEW: As an authorized Peavey dealer, we are now able to take Peavey orders by mail, email, or phone and even ship direct to you in the 50 US states.

Here's a link with Hotel Reservations info, Map/Directions, Ticket info, and more.

Doug Jernigan's Seminar will be on Friday.

I played one of the Carter Starters at the Namm show and was really impressed. I also got to play the regular Carter at the show and I was blowed away by the feel and tone of the guitar.
John, you and Ann keep up the great work.

Bump,

Bob Knight · Post by **Bob Knight** » 25 Aug 2004 5:57 pm

Joey,
Do you think an informative announcenment about one of our member/steel players doesn't belong in this category, but a commercial vendor's sales pitch is more appropriate, here and in Feedback. I see some bias here.I will reword this to say I think you lack insight as a moderator.[This message was edited by Bob Knight on 26 August 2004 at 09:28 AM.]

Jim Smith · Post by **Jim Smith** » 25 Aug 2004 7:25 pm

I'm with Bob on this one. If an announcement about a steel player belongs in "Steel Players", then an announcement about instruments for sale belongs in "For Sale: Instruments".

" I think you suck as a moderator!!!" - Bob Knight

Bob and Jim,
If you are talking about the discussion on Jim P. playing with " Big and Rich" on TV, I believe it belongs in Steel Players. It is a discussion about a Steel Player.

If it was an announcement of the show, it belongs here.
But the show had already aired.

As far as someone posting a commercial message here, that a fine point. I'd have a lot of other posts to delete if we strictly inforced this.

I'll post a note in "FEEDBACK" asking b0b about this.

Sorry you think I suck. I try my best. Today I checked the Forum 7AM before going to work, worked a full day, did some Forum work when I got home at 6, went to a band rehersal, returned home at 11PM, only to check it and respond to your comments about how I suck.

Now it's midnight and I'm still doing Forum work.
You're welcome.

OK folks, you have to realize that Joey's position here on the FORUM is not 24/7. He has a private life and works a day job. How,about you?

Tony Prior · Post by **Tony Prior** » 25 Aug 2004 11:10 pm

it's seems to me that a change of catagory is a no brainer..

A delete from the Forum...now that would be an issue.

Now Joey..you need to just give up your day gig and all family related stuff and spend ALL your time moderating..not just MOST of it..good thing you're not a Prize Fighter Referree or an NFL line judge !

Happy very early Thursday..

"Moderation" before food.

Moderation in all things.

Joey Ace · Post by **Joey Ace** » 26 Aug 2004 2:08 am

I'm not sure it's such a "no brainer" Tony.
The first part of Ann's post looks like an Announcement of an Event.

How is it different from someone Announcing their CD is now released, and you can buy it at.... ?

Roy Ayres · Post by **Roy Ayres** » 26 Aug 2004 3:11 am

Joey -- see my remark under your thread in "Feedback and Testing."

(I know a former moderator who quit the job because his moderator salary wasn't enough to cover the cost of the Valium necessitated by the nasty-isms he received.)

I read the Forum from the bottom up.

I also commented in the Feedback section, and said, "I agreed with Bob about the placing and moving of some posts, not about his opinion of you personally. Sorry if that wasn't clear."

Ron Page · Post by **Ron Page** » 26 Aug 2004 4:46 am

Bob, that's pretty rough... Grinding an axe, are we?

With all due respect, I don't know how Ann's message could be construed as anything other than an announcement (about an event). Granted, it's mareketing and promoting Carter products, but not selling instruments. It's telling what other promotional items you'll receive if you should buy an instrument at the convention.

Bobbe, you crack me up!

Seriously, other people are announcing their ISGC sales in the Classifieds. I'm going to take the bull by the horns here and move this topic to "For Sale: Instruments".
