BP,

I accept the apology. I completely understand where you were coming from with the way you were seeing it. The reason I kept it on the forum was because this place is very friendly and accomodating. So, I wanted to take a more friendly approach, like, if Jon saw my questions then he could respond at his own leisure if he was so inclined (which he went above and beyond). I never took that for granted, trust me. I always tried to make sure Jon felt like I truly appreciated him taking the time to address any concerns. If he didn't know that... now he does! :) I do most of my business face to face so I might not be that great at getting my point across on here.

To answer your questions: Yes, the guitar was new and I did let the company know about the problem but didn't get a response. I then came here and saw that the guy that does repairs also posts. My initial intention was to figure this out myself with help from the experts. The offer to call customer service and get an R.A.N. then came about. So... I did. Everything after that, like I said, was just a friendly approach to learn what the problem was so this doesn't have to happen again. I don't like being at the mercy of my own ignorance so I wanted to understand the problem as well as get it fixed. Understand? No pressure or obligations to respond at all because I do realize that I am not the only customer and I realize that it is not even his role anyway. I can't stress enough how GREAT Jon has been with that.

So, no hard feelings at all... you guys still rock (honestly the best guitars I've ever played)! Even this, a conversation with the owner of a company such as yours would not happen with any other establishment... at least not in this manner. Everything's cool (I don't hold grudges anyway - pointless & childish). In fact, respect for your company went up a little bit. I guess now we can "Relax baby". ;)

Sincerely,

Mark

It needs to be said again. Send me a guitar packed in the devils foam, and I will hunt you down and kill you. Don't say you haven't been warned.

The funny thing about that is that it actually happened to a 60's Les Paul I was getting refretted... I was not happy. It wasn't a screwdriver though. It was a hammer and let me tell you... it messed that poor guitar up big time. That tech pissed me off to a violent degree. He didn't even finish the job. That situation was a nightmare.

My opinion of EBMM just went up another notch:)

I definately see both sides to BP's comments and Mark's comments. It's good to see everything has been worked out. It's not even my guitar, but I have all the faith in the world that your guitar is going to come back to you in better condition then when you shipped it.

Where else are you going to see the owner of a company take the time to respond to not only this thread but also be a regular contributer to the forums like BP does. Awesome!!!!

Thanks,
Scott

Hey Now! You guys are trying to get me put back in the doghouse!

I do believe, after the description given to me by my wife, it was probably 4 bags the size in Tommy's pic that was packed in a box big enough to put a piano in....heheheeh.......

The beauty part to all of that is this: The neck was broke and my wife, God Bless Her, wanted to make sure the guitar would get there with NO damage! HAHAHAHAHA....EHEHEHEHEHEHE.....

Jon has forgiven me.......but, I would never do that again! :cool:

Please understand that it is my mission to make sure that devoted players get the best possible service out of our instruments.

Speaking from experience, this statement pretty much sums it up. I'm sure it goes for Jon, Scott, Beth, Kevin and everybody at EBMM too.
