I guess no publicity is bad publicity?

However, a lot of people think we manufacturer the Chewie II based on all the emails I'm getting. Fun.

Reminds me of when we got the hug of death from Deadmau5.

I didn't read the article as criticizing our servers.... it more seemed like it was giving props to this guy's enormous popularitythat his fans could take down a popular and established gear site... they seemed to be giving us props for being so thorough with everyone's gear that the dude's fans would flock in regarding EB as the authority on all things rig related!

I love that reverb.com was able to comment on it. A testament to how big the site is. And how big a part it plays for so many in the music community.

Yeah. I definitely read it that way too. Just wish the site hadn't crashed. We had record traffic yesterday with 41K visits, many of which took place during the Grammys. Seems Ed Sheeran and Gary Clark Jr pages were both hit a bunch yesterday. Surprise, surprise.

To be clear, I'm a fan of Reverb. In fact, many of the people that work at Reverb are also on Equipboard, which I think is super cool. We've bought and sold things on Reverb, and as far as I'm concerned the more people that are interested in music the better.

Good stuff! I guess I'll get back to building Chewie Monstas now....

Why do I think that I don't have enough money for a Chewie II?

It's a season of growth. I'm proud to be a part of this site. It is becoming the bible of gear.

Hey guys, just wanted to jump in as my head has been spinning ever since that performance as well! Awesome PR for Equipboard with that article coming from quite a few sources.

For anyone who wants to carry on with a discussion about the Chewie, I feel I've got a pretty good understanding of what's happening under the hood on that thing, and I've built a similar system (though using off-the-shelf components) after having many of the same struggles he did with his older looper.

I'm happy to chat with anyone who has questions about his rig- or has something to share about it that I don't know!
