    I'm Sorry

    Since my thread is on lock-down, I just wanted to apologies to everyone, especially BP. I never intended to offend or even piss-off anyone (sorry Smelly I just didn’t dig the mental patient comment and sorry Stratty I just became kind of defensive at that point and I should have just left things with my last post to BP on 7/20 – Understood, thanks BP).

    My job requires me to always think out-side the box and to constantly come up with new innovative ideas. Although, research and understanding the business is crucial to any successful idea and that’s where I had failed - I should have done some research before posting (or actually not posting) my idea and thoughts. I love the EBMM products especially the strings and guitars (4 Axis’) and everyone here is awesome!

    Sorry and all the best,
    Slav

    No apology necessary, my man. Sometimes it's a learning process for all of us.

    Exactly, 1100 a month only equates to 13000 a year, which is not a huge amount. I'm honored to play these guitars.

    I've said my share of dumb things on this forum (even this week), but I'm slowly learning to think before I push submit post. My brain lernin' works at about half capacity most of the time.

    Hey Slav,

    We all do it... don't worry too much about it. We all have been guilty of something on the Forum one time or another. I'm still new and learning the rules as well and will most likely do something very soon to get myself in a bit of hot water. However, maybe we should take a vote on making it a right of passage to kick Smelly around a bit... haha. Seriously though, who wants to vote? hahaha....

    Just have fun with it and all will be fine.

    .....I think what we need is an online custom shop whereas we can create our own MMan guitar - like maybe a Steve Petrucci, or an Albert Lukather!!!

    The old Slav would have made fun of your Bon Jovi tribute statement but, the new reformed Slav is cool with life and is not going to say anything bad...

    All is good,
