VO-BB - 20 YEARS OLD!

Hello Everybody,

I wanted to let you know I launched a new facebook group called G.A.S. Relief (Gear Acquisition Syndrome)

The purpose is to be an online swap meet for equipment. If you have wanted to try out a certain mic, pre-amp or any other piece of equipment, put up a request and maybe somebody will be willing to let you borrow one for a while! The group is intended to be for borrowing/trades only. I thought since I have been spending untold amounts of money buying and returning things, it may be better to try to borrow items first. I don't know if it will fly, but it may be worth a look.

Link is as follows:

Thanks,

Paul

I'd like to borrow a U87 for a year or three, I'll join the group and see if anyone can hook me up. Wink

Seriously, cool idea, Paul. Hope it works well.

Paul,

I'll check it out -- I saw you sent me something about this, I've been crazy busy lately...my car is in the shop and non-VO stuff has to be taken care of and all that and wot-wot!

Cool idea, i'd swap/trade my TLM-102 for something interesting. Not everything works for everyone. What doesn't sound good on me might sound great one someone else and vice versa.

Nice idea, Paul! Just curious, why Facebook and not just here on VO-BB?

Thanks George,

I was sort of piggy backing off of Steven Jay Cohen's Gear Exchange but with the focus of barter vs sales. I'm open to changing or expanding platforms though
