I hate the name Vintera.

The gear might actually be ok but I don't know because I'm repulsed by the name.

I know, I'm the jerk and you like your Vintera guitar. We're cool. But...

VINTERA. Blech.

yeah it doesn't help that they're blasting every input my body has with targeted Vintera ads. I want a 50s radius as much as the next guy, just call it that!

It's hard keeping track of all the branded lines

Chevy/GMC "Side Post..." batteries.

I forgot just how much I actually hate you.
Side post batteries are THE WORST. Who was the ass-hat that thought this was a good idea? Terrible.

Any and all "midi" controllers that do not have any Midi connections over 5 pin DIN, and only have USB. For some reason it is getting almost impossible to buy a new controller that has an actual Midi port. I had to buy a box that converts USB to midi for $50. I'll also add that it's dumb that they stopped putting Midi Thru ports on pretty much everything. I also had to buy 2 boxes that take a single Midi signal and give you Thru ports, $50 each. Now I have all these stupid DI sized boxes that need to be powered all over the place. An OUT port is not a THRU port and you need both. If they want to save space fine, give me Midi on an 1/8th inch, but most controllers are 90% empty space, so it's just being shitty.

The cheapest Samson one has DIN. Might as well get the cheapest since they will all break in a year whether you spend $100 or $500. Welcome to the future!
