Joe... what a loser. Keeps ranting about religion, creates several accounts on forums pretending to be fans of him and his work. Fake accounts like "DrApologetics" and Dr. This and Dr That.... You can always tell he's posting because he goes ON AND ON
AND ON.................

I just found out that Fender took him to court, TWICE, and he lost, and got fined AT LEAST $50000 USD + Legal fees. Hehehe, Im so happy.. that dumba$$ fuq:

I was the one that had posted about him in the Gretsch Pages website YEARS AGO, but "mysteriously", that page is no longer available on that site. I had bought a neck off of him, and when I removed the paint, ALLPARTS was stamped into the wood.

BUT WAIT! I was able to access an older version thru the Internet Time Machine!

Here's what I had wrote, for prosperity :), typos fixed:




I've dealt with this guy too, sold me a tele neck claiming it to be a real one. I took off the paint on the neck heel to reveal ALLPARTS LICENSE BY FENDER.

I told him back then that all Blackguard Fender necks had a hole underneath the D tuner, but OH NO he said... "Whatever I think I know about Fender necks, I don't."

Joe Koegel aka Kelton Swade, you're a jerk. I've seen your photos on ebay and you look like the dummy you are. BTW kelton is Roy Orbison's middle name, swade is the wrong speeling of suede when Carl perkins wrote blue swade shoes. That's how he came up
with that name.

PS He also screwed another guy on ebay called AlbertOtis from LA I think, for a 'real' strat neck... another allparts. I emailed the police near his town but never heard back from them.

BTW this guy is always complaining about being sick or in the hospital (what a liar) and never having money to pay you back or anything. Full of excuses, hates Billy Ray Cirus because of his daughter's success, hates Brad Paisley cause he's good, hates
people of diverse background even... what an a-hole.

Anyways.. my 2 cents.....

TELECASTERTECH




Oh Joe / Kelton Swade, you ret4rd......You're Nothing but a foul-mouthed, vulgar, racist, prejudicial, lying piece of bigot sh1t, so just Shut The Fuq Up and crawl back into the hole you came from. EVERYONE on the Internet knows who and what you are, AND
ARENT, by now... lols.
