Dave Carroll strikes out again at United, I guess he is not satisfied yet.



Actually he does cool videos, and should thank United for creating the opportunity for him to shine.

Very creative. Though all the publicity he has gotten was probably well worth the broken Taylor...

It's interesting that neither of the 2 videos had a Taylor guitar in them. Both had what looked like 70's SJ's.

Excellent ! Thanks for sharing Fred. Definitely brought a few laughs and smiles especially the last minute or so. Silly question but did United ever make good on his claim?

He's playing a Taylor T5 in parts of this video.

And according to his account of the saga, United did eventually offer to compensate him fully.. after he released is first video (and it became popular). He refused.

I believe Bob Taylor has a youtube video where he offers to replace it as well, but I believe all offers were refused.

I'm pretty sure his popularity has increased sufficiently that he can get whatever brand guitar he wants at this point.
