Mattyj, that's the same reason I visit at least once a day. I've been to other forums that are much more heavily trafficked, but I was turned off by all the BS. Here you have a small group of people that really love guitars and express opinions honestly and respectfully.

(If I want to hear some profanity I'll watch Pulp Fiction. I don't need to read it on a guitar site.)

I don't even remember how I first came across tubefreaks, but hey, now I'm a SENIOR MEMBER...

Anyway, I'm glad you found us. Also, if you haven't already done so, you should check out Cary's other site - Electric Guitar Review.

As for coffee...there's no buzz like a real Italian Espresso buzz! I had my first Espresso in Torino, and I thought I was going to be up for a week.
