THE ENDORSED ARTIST... what about those that endorse the company by purchasing their instruments. YEAH! They give back by providing great instruments... but WE can't hurt anything if we ask! RIGHT!?!

Hmm.. I'd disagree. Asking and having a big thread about it, probably completely rules out any possibility of such a thing ever happening.

Exactly,

It seems that the ridiculous level of customer interaction and support is both good and bad... First the forum only guitar, then there was the custom shop thing, the limited edition forum paint, then EB finally said ok, we'll do something for the guys in the forums... Open house. Then wah pedals come up. Can you imagine anyting like this in any other guitar shop's forums...? All you see in some other forums is people complaining about customer service. We've been given a gift here, but it sometimes seem that it isn't enough.

Mind you, if you're ever giving out Wah pedals ... count me in ;)

I realize the thread was started in fun, but I can see it turning into to something else...

you can't play on both sides of the fence here. Either youre against us having fun and teasing the EBMM STAFF with hints of giving us free pedals. DO I expect to get a free pedal? NO WAY! It's just us having fun... I sincerely appreciate everything that EBMM is doing and I know that the OPEN HOUSE is a great IDEA!

JUST AN IDEA... IS BP... GASP... STERLING?

Yeah, you're right that's who BP is ... took me while to catch on to that too....

It just dawned on me as to who BP was... and that IS SO SO SO SO SO SO friggin cool that Sterling would take the time to interact with his customers at the capacity he does. That is just cool!

THanks BP!

Well, you know I started this thread to pull Big Poppa's chain. After all, he tortures us weekly with his Tuesday Morning Torture!

I hope some of our newer members understand that I'm just goofing here.

Indeed, Big Poppa = Sterling Ball.. I believe he has something to do with, um, 'upper management' of the company. Really, really, upper. Oh, hell let's just say it.. he owns it. There.

:D

Don't hold your breath for those free wah pedals, dudes. But do start saving your pocket change so you can buy one when they're ready!

Janice, however, might manage to score a freebie. But she's a damn sight cuter than any of us boys.

Hey, Beth? Sweet, beautiful Beth! How about... :D :D :D :D

Haven't you guys ever heard of SANTA? He gives out free stuff every year. :p He's never missed me once in 32 years. So lets leave Big Poppa alone so he can make the best guitars in the world and start writing them letters to the fat guy in the red suit.

If I can ever go to one of the open houses the only thing I would expect to leave with is the biggest smile that's ever been on this face. :D

What? An EB wah? Who said that such a thing exists? ;)

They probably haven't gotten that far with it yet (setting a price). I have a feeling that only prototypes exist right now, and they're made from EB volume pedal casings, pieces of Koogie's original Pearl Redburst Petrucci neck, and foam peanuts sent to Jongitarz.

hehehehehe.....the bad part is, I did supply the pieces of the Petrucci neck and enough foam peanunts to make, what Jon, at least 1,000 of them! LOL....
