Hey everyone! I am new to the forum, so I thought I would stop in to introduce myself and say hello. My name is Steve. I have been reading the posts here for a couple of weeks, and I have to say that you really seem like a nice, well-informed bunch of people here. I'm really looking forward to becoming a part of the community.
So, your probably wondering why it took me so long to sign up...or, then again, maybe your not.
At any rate, I really just wanted to wait until I had a reason to post. Today I was given that reason. I just ordered my first Music Man guitar. It is a carbon blue pearl EBMMJP model, with matching headstock. I have a bit of a wait ahead of me, and I am literally going crazy already, but I have no doubts that when that baby comes to my doorstep, it will have been well worth the wait. I have been in the market for a new guitar for months, and after trying many different makes and models, I have concluded that there just isn't a lot out there to be excited about these days. Then I recently played EBMMJP, I knew that when I didn't want to let the guitar go back to to it's owner, that it was the guitar for me. Add to that, the wide variety of beautiful colors, a fantasitic body designed with a guitarists comfort in mind, and Ernie Balls reputation for great customer service, and, well, as many of you already know, it wasn't a difficult decision to make.
Of course, I would be lying if I didn't say that dealing with Pete Dubaldo (Andropos) didn't effect my decision to purchase this guitar. After corresponding through email, in which, Pete was extremely helpful, I knew I was going to go through him to get the guitar. But, I have to say that after speaking with him on the phone today, that I couldn't be happier about the decision to go through Pete. I spoke with him for over an hour, and not once did I feel rushed, pressured, nor did I feel like I was putting him out or taking up his time. He took the time to answer all my questions, and make me feel comfortable about my decision to purchase this guitar. I felt like I made a new friend today, rather then someone just trying to sell me a guitar. And that is rare in todays world. So, if you are ever considering a new Music Man, give Pete a call. He will give you a great price, and treat you with professionalism and respect. I know that for me, my future Music Man purchases will be done through Pete, exclusively.
Thank you Pete. Thank you Ernie Ball. Ok, now I cannot wait to get this d*mn thing in my hands!
