Fire fighters said the fire destroyed the factory, two tonnes of raw fibre glass, drums of hydraulic oil, mattresses, a large number of guitars and amplifiers, and a large amount of plastic were consumed in the blaze.

Imagine all that guitar gears gone to waste. If they had passed them to me, I would certainly be another Van Halen in the making. Alamak what a waste

Are they our biggest supplier in this region?

An old trick in the industry is to over declare/insure the amount of the actual cost, than cause a "mishap" to your goods. Than the insurance company has to pay.

I'm sure it's insured...or else it's mayday for Behringer...

You cant over estimate by too much.....If they check your accounts and find out then you'll kanna sue.....

boss got angry when they found out behringer is making half assed copy of their products and decided to send arsonists to burn the house down.

 

[tany]

maybe it's a conspiracy theory. the management of behringer, knowing of the trouble they would get because of forging so many pedals (kana sued), decided to destroy the evidence. but cant lah, got ppl have their pedals around the world liao. hahaha.

^ So, watch out...they're gonna burn your houses down.

 

[slutgarden]
