It’s hard to accept but I think I get what you’re saying. To me the FDP Strats were the pinnacle of the site’s success, the high mark of a golden era. But I guess sometimes it’s just time to close the chapter and soldier on.

Well, this is a bizarre thread. Who were you on the FDP?
Anyway, I don't want any contributions for something that is over and I didn't run the FDP for free in any event.
The only reason I listed the FDP guitars is I thought maybe someone would want them more than me at this stage of life. I have many guitars, amps, and other instruments. I have too much stuff and would rather have less going forward.
FWIW, I think you're trolling us... ;o)

So you are in fact not sitting by a fire eating beans from a can because you have not sold those guitars yet?

My heart was in the right place and I meant no offense. I was just a lurker on the FDP, couldn’t even tell you what my handle was. I ducked out shortly after Fender pulled back their involvement with the site. Checked in here and there over the years, was sad to see it closed. I did contribute once or twice. Those were exciting times even for a lurker though. There really wasn’t anything else like the the FDP back then, especially with Fender onboard. You guys did a lot of fun stuff back then. The Scottsdale Six, the factory tour, the FDP LE instruments. Edit: loud and clear re: contributions!

I’m personally just having a little fun. Chris May well be eating beans from a can by a fire, but if so, it’s by choice.
It’s a free site, feel free to toss me a donation if you’re enjoying it, or not.
Chris has also made his position clear, so you’re free to just enjoy all we have to offer. We have many if not most of the active cast of characters from the end days of the FDP and for the most part, the conversation from over there has continued on over here.
We’re glad you’re aboard.

Just a note, although I’ve stopped acknowledging contributions here as some thought perhaps it didn’t come off well, I have received a couple lately and am very appreciative to those who chose to do so. I have continued thanking people privately.
Thanks again!
