Ajoten Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Despite being a bassist, I'm looking for a good guitard-related forum based in the UK, and d@mned if I can find one. Anyone heard tell of such a thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Go to the BassChat homepage, scroll down to the bottom of the list of forums and, lo and behold, GuitarChat! Still in its infancy, but from small acorns, etc. Remember, many of the members on BC are guitar players too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weststarx Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) I've been on the search for one as well because if I'm honest I spend more time playing my guitar than I do my bass, but finding one with a community as good as basschat is next to impossible. Maybe thats because they are all guitarists? ....Yes...Yes it is.... Edit: Owners of Basschat....How about making us a "GuitarChat"?

That one was set up by the former members of Musicradar - from when Musicradar still had a forum. They closed it when there was a security issue with their Gaming website but never turned all the forums back on again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weststarx Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Thanks for posting that one, I had not seen it before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajoten Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Excellent, thanks! And of course I feel duty bound to use GuitarChat as my primary guitar-answer-finding resource. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 The more we use it, the bigger it will become. Or, to paraphrase Field of Dreams, if we use it, they will come. Now, I just need to heed my own words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbanx Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 On a similar vein, does anyone know of any "General Band" type forums? I know most opics are touched on in the various bits of this forum, I was thinking more about the whole band dynamic, getting gigs, getting backdrops made, finding a producer / accountant / insurance, etc.?

RhysP Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) There are some great guitar forums out there, but they tend to be based around particular builders. I've been a member of the Gretsch Discussion Pages & The Hamer Fanclub forum for years. They also have general interest & other guitars sections so they're not limited to just those particular makes. The specialist knowledge on these sites is astonishing. Edited July 28, 2015 by RhysP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
