I think it started in the early 1800's as a fur trading forum.

I don't know the whole history, but I seem to recall that the forum started as an add-on to the original Guitars Canada website.

Noah started it after the big flood.
what amazingly informative answers, maybe it started as a joke...
"And on the 8th day, he created GC......"
GuitarsCanada is Scott, he started the site as a hobbyist guitar player himself, something like 11 years ago. He sold it to a larger 'forum consortium' last year.

When I joined, I was wondering if this forum wasn't attached to an online store of some kind. I've gotten over that now. There was medication available.

thanks to scott for a great site, he even replied to emails..."forum consortium"? o_O
Noone knows.
Its just always been .
If the forum was a religion, Scott would be God.

God sold us out to some "forum consortium".
Scott would have to give us the history. I know it started pretty small - more of a hobby in the beginning. Certainly thinking about it reminds me of some of the members we've lost along the way ............................
This forum was created by Scott (GuitarsCanada). It's only been recently that he sold the rights to this forum. All through the years he ran this forum pretty much on his own. Some have come and gone but there are some who had been here almost from the beginning.
