Here it is:

"Ed Roman would like to apologize to Ernie Ball Music Man, for printing several disparaging remarks about the quality & of the guitars and the components they have chosen to use.

Ed Roman would also like to apologize for making 1 or 2 replacement bodies for the Ernie Ball Music Man John Petrucci models. There was never any purposeful intent to represent these bodies other than what they were or could have been.

1 Lefthanded replacement bodies built by Ed Roman 1 or possibly 2

2 Quilt top bodies Petrucci bodies that were never made but were offered to anyone who wanted a custom made body.

Ed Roman is also very sorry for any misunderstanding that may have occurred regarding the OLP Axis style bodies that were offered. Anyone who purchased one may return it for a full refund if they wish. To the best of my knowledge there were never any sold. However if I am wrong and you feel you overpaid, or that the body was misrepresented, or you don't want it for any reason at all. I will gladly buy it back for the full amount spent. I will pay shipping both ways and give you an extra $50.00 for your trouble.



Ed Roman extends the same apologies to John Petrucci and hopes there will be no bad vibe regarding this unfortunate misunderstanding, and any incidents that may or may not have occured.

Ed Roman 3/29/06"

The apology sounds almost like his lawyer wrote it....Ed Roman would like to apologize, Ed roman is also very sorry. It should be I would like to apologize and I am very sorry. It's almost like he's trying to seperate himself from the apology.

I wish I could have been a fly on the wall when the whole discussion went down:)

There's no need to fear! Wonderdog is here!

When criminals in this world appear
And break the laws that they should fear
And frighten all who see or hear
The cry goes up both far and near
For Wonderdog! Wonderdog! Wonderdog! Wonderdog!

Speed of lightning, roar of thunder
Fighting all who rob or plunder
Wonderdog. Wonderdog!

When in this world the headlines read
Of those whose hearts are filled with greed
Who rob and steal from those who need
To right this wrong with blinding speed
Goes Wonderdog! Wonderdog! Wonderdog! Wonderdog!

Speed of lightning, roar of thunder
Fighting all who rob or plunder
Wonderdog
aah aah aah aah
Wonnderdog!

pack-rat has never been to ER's store

pack-rat wonders how E R can sell guitars if there is a no-play policy in effect

pack-rat find this quote to be funny regarding another guitar ER has copied in the past:

" I used to make these guitars. In fact, I made hundreds of them over a 15 year period. These are currently not being built because Eddie asked us not to interfere with Charvel. I have a list of people who bought them from me. Several can be bought. I'll give you the names of these people please call for info. I still sell this guitar in kit form. Contact me if you are interested".

That's the most bullsh*t apology I've ever read. It attempts to minimallly comply with whatever requirements were spelled out, while admitting no wrongdoing. Oh well, sh*t begets sh*t I suppose.
