I got home today, and it was a crummy day indeed, from start to finish.

But...my boy was happy to see me, AND there was a box from Ernie Ball. Full of Wonder Wipes and stickers from the save the UK guitars campaign. Talk about day brighteners!

Thanks abunch to BP and the gang for supporting the fund raiser, and for continuing to come out with cool stuff! I will spend the rest of my evening polishing my EBMMs...

Happy Motoring!

I would make some, but I don't think they would want them once they get there. :D

seems like the body is nice and shiny and the knobs need work.......heheheh


One can't do that enough over the pond! All you 'Gaddamn Imericans' seem to think we spend ALL our spare time 'polishing our knobs' anyway!! LOL!!! What a bunch of polishers!!!
Great gesture from Sterling & the gang.

BP, Beth & co - thankyou for this gesture :) It's such a lovely idea and means the guys get something tangible - aside from the warm and fuzzy feeling from doing such a good deed! :D

Azzy_wazzy & Scruffbag buying first house. Life is good.

Flat broken into. Misc items stolen. Life sucks.

Estate agents screw up paper work. Life sucks.

Short on cash, house in danger, future uncertain. Life sucks.

Azzy & Trv decide to sell guitars for quick cash. Life REALLY sucks.

Some crazy forumite brainstorms the "Save Azzy & Trev's Balls" campaign. Getting better.

Forumites respond in overwhelming manner. And even better.

Forumites raise enough cash to fix the estate agent screw up and buy a couple of pints. Life is good again.

Both guitars saved. Life is wonderful.

BP decided to give out goodies to all who contributed. Life is grand!

And that's the way it was......

OMG!:eek: OMG!:eek: OMG!:eek: OMG!:eek:

I just got home from a LOUSY day at work and an even worse band meeting.

And there in my living room was a box labeled with the following cryptic message:

ERNIE BALL PAYS THE FREIGHT

It was DAY-GLO orange! The label, not the box!

I discovered a vast trove of treasures inside!

BP, I was overwhelmed! Thank you very much for everything!

Once again you and your firm have amazed me with your kindness and generosity!

And given me even more reason to only ever use SLO approved instruments.

You guys are, quite simply, THE BEST!

Corny, but sincerely, :D

The same thing happened to me! I got home late and I was blown away -- I thought you were sending one package of one type of Wonder Wipes. Not the whole set. And I LOVE the stickers.

Thank you all at EBMM for your generosity. I can't put it any better than Ritchie but here's another heartfelt thanks to add to everyone else's.

Behold the power of the Wonder Wipes!

I do believe I'm going to go to the liquor store and replenish the vodka stash, make myself a martini and WIPE SOME BASSES, dammit!

They look so cool and....industrial.

Thanks to the crew and Beth, who REALLY knows how to pack a box.

;)

It's the whole set of wipes (instrument, fretboard and strings)? :eek: Mine should be here when I get back from England next week.
