Flamingo Steal...

jho · 24th July 2003

I can't afford it, even at that price right now, but there's a CS Flamingo on ebay for 1695 from Atlanta Pro Audio.

I don't work there so this isn't a sales pitch, just a friendly tip from a fellow GS. I do buy alot of stuff from them and they are good folks. I saw the actual unit last time I was there. Perhaps a little over exaggerated on the condition, there are a few nicks along the faceplate edges where it rubbed against other gear while going into a rack, but overall looks good and still a STEAL at 1695 IMHO.

Or you could call Gary Ferguson direct and they'd probably end the auction for you, 404-329-9494. I want one so bad but since I can't get I want someone to enjoy...I spent my recent $$ on a new Harley !

Hey all work no play makes J.Ho a very dull boy...

Besides I spent my last 50K on gear, I need to get outdoors more often.

Of course, I'm just about to order the entire Dangerous line...so I'm still a slut to the core. Just a biker-slut too.

Nice bike !
Besides, I am sure it makes some interesting sounds too - think of it more of a sound processor of sorts, if it makes you feel better

Great idea! I guess It's also a time compressor as well as a white noise generator...

Careful with your bike's "crush" function. Just a little gallows humor from this former VFR rider. All kidding aside, my girlfriend took a spill on her bicycle last weekend and you would not believe the damage (road rash, swelling etc.) she sustained on a 10 mph wipeout. Being the weather was particularly nice she was not wearing her helmet. Luckily she is going to be ok.

Dont you know that will ruin your 'studio tan'!

It's true. I have been considering putting on sun lotion on my latest editing sessions with two 18' monitors.

jho · 25th July 2003

Yeah AJ That was super cheap. It was 2200 bucks just a few weeks ago and no one was biting. Seems they could have gotten more than 1695... So did a GS member get it? I hope so...

Yeah gotta keep three eyes open and never ever hit the crush function...

J Ho,

Man I wish I knew you were in Atlanta. I was just down there scoping out a few places. From the sounds of the stuff you do, you should hook up with my friend's band "Yellow and Green" or go watch one of their shows. Of the many Atlanta bands I saw on my trip, they were the only guys who genuinely rocked.
