SBO Custom Guitars[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

No reliable, independent sources found for this company. TheWeakWilled (T * G) 19:08, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. It is nothing more than WP:SPAM, created by a WP:SPA in order to self-promote a non-notable company. We're not here to provide free advertising. Qworty (talk) 19:48, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Note. Other WP:SPAM pages created by this self-promoting WP:SPA include SBO FX, SBO XY, and SBO Beast!. One of these products is in the design stage and hasn't even been produced yet. I suggest that these three other articles also be nominated for deletion and bundled with this AfD for SBO Custom Guitars. This is a really awful example of a non-notable company exploiting and spamming Wikipedia by creating multiple advertisements masquerading as legitimate articles.

- Which failed, and rightly so. Drmies (talk) 02:38, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all four. No reliable sources cited in the article, and I found none on the internet or in Guitar Player. There may well be references elsewhere, but I looked, and I didn't find them. Shame--that FX is kind of cool, with an MXR Phase 90 built in; the FY has a built-in Kaoss Pad. Still, no sources, no notability. Oh, Qworty, no need to get on your high horse. This isn't the first ad, it's not the worst of 'em, and it won't be the last. Drmies (talk) 02:44, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as promotional, no mention of the company or why it is notable or even any history appears to be a vehicle to list products. MilborneOne (talk) 19:18, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
