I as well am glad that this thread continues to be viewed. I believe that with proper advertising and word of mouth through friends and on the internet, this will be the single biggest piece of new for left handed people. Keep the word alive!

I'm only here because via telephonic conversation, Beth propositioned me with large unmarked bills. She suggested I insert my special brand of humor and zany remark on the forums, and in exchange I would receive at least three whole dollars. At first, I was shocked that she would throw around such a number; but soon learned that she was as strong as her word.

I accepted the task, only to be told by some folks in the GB area that I was to monitor their threads and police them accordingly. I wouldn't say I was strong-armed into the task, but those limey bastards are pretty convincing. Apropos to nothing, I do not even remember what the topic was initially, but jumped in to ensure that naysayers kept things topical and relatively tamed. Coming from me, it was quite a change to say the least. I'm the Russell Brand of my living room generally, so keeping people on topic and within reason was exhausting.

From there, I was pestered by certain wrong handed fellows from the eastern ocean line about left handed instruments and how the product he desired was simply unavailable. We exchanged commentaries, only further propelling him toward rejection and depression. It was an awful sight because he was so adamant about it.

In a strange twist of fate, my ever-growing hero complex flared up when a lonely little forum member was mercilessly double-teamed by a few misinformed sources. Donning my vintage Star Wars bedspread as a make-shift cape, I leapt into action, protecting the images of this fellow and all affected by this attempt at tarnishing.

My good deed was rewarded with a product I was vying for, but there is much more to the story than just that. It has gone unsaid up until this point, but I believe the truth must be told. So much more than customer-based commercial advancement has taken place.

There has been an emotional bonding in this thread that could not have been predicted by Nostradamus or Nosferatu! Messages exchanged, sentiments shared, laughs tears and stories regaled! Big guns complimenting little peons. Mention of vintage Star Wars bedspreads, resulting in jealousy!

Know now that this is bigger than all of us. This little engine that could in the form of a product that was to never see the light of day is slowly chugging its way down the tracks of potential with its final destination of mainstay production. Many of us have read, some have commented, few have felt the emotion. All are affected by this. I shall sign off now, but leave these words for all to sit and ponder on:

I am REALLY bored at work.

I never thought that Canadian was a different language until today.

i think it would be unfair to lump in an entire nation with me, based on my unique storytelling abilities. I have yet to see the likes of chaps like Fogman or PsychoWard babble on like I have... so that eliminates Canadians AND left handers. It is safe to say that I am all by my lonesome with my verbose choice of postings. I'd like to say that now I know how Shakespeare felt, but I'm not a fraud. Ouch. Sorry Bill, but the first cut is the deepest.

and modest too! :rolleyes:

it's guitars Tim, not Shakespeare in the Park. I just like to "ROCK!!", not to "bring forth musical stylings like those of the stone!!"
:p:p:p :D

You should send BP thanks on your best stationary.

Henceforth I shall remove my finest message paper, lick my quill and proceed to thank Sterling Ball for his lovely aid. I shall firmly attach this commentary to a messenger pigeon and hope that he receives my thanks in an expedient fashion.

Cheerio!

Oh wow!

This is awesome news, has it been officially confirmed yet?

I'm really hyped about this, I've been searching for a decent guitar for a while, think it could well be this one if it does come. :D

Thank you :)

Thats pretty awesome, would be far better if there were the piezo models too, but he does have a fair point about them not being big sellers I guess, none the less, I'm taking a JP7 and a JP6 :p

You're welcome. I just love spreading the word on this great news since I'm one of the annoying few who begged for one. I owe at least that much!

The more Scott and I keep this thread active with our potentially annoying banter, the more people see the announcement! Based on the excitement I've read, it looks like this isn't going to be a complete waste of time for Sterling and Co.!

I stopped begging about 3 years ago, when lost my hope for a lefty JP.

I just can't believe this.

I'll order the mystic dream the day I see an official timetable... I still can't believe it.
