Jack... Yes it's the drunken me. Thanks for putting up with my questions about the 06 le. I said in another post that YOU were the one that made it happen. I really thought I was out the money back then. Thanks for putting up with me. I'm ready (in a few weeks) for an H-S Sterling. WHITE!!!!!!

Thanks to the greatest MOdErAtOr ever!

Tell me where to buy!

Thanks, Jack, for all your work for us knuckleheads. And BP. And EB crew.

Hey Jack, you know how I feel, not that you've felt me up or anything. Here's looking to the wind at our backs for a while.

You did the right thing by walking away from it when you did, everybody knows that, so I would'nt sweat it...

We're at the end of a very trying few months for some of you and some of us, and there is something I've wanted to tell you but had to wait for things to be resolved, which I think they are....finally.

I divorced myself from the sales gig last fall, but I couldn't divorce myself - not really - from the people who trusted me enough to buy an instrument. I felt an obligation to you at the time, and it never stopped. When things went south, let me tell you, I felt plenty of guilt for having been involved. There was only so much I could do to make it right, but I did what I could and tried to be upfront and completely transparent with you guys.

Sometimes I didn't tell you the whole story, but not because I didn't want to. I also felt an obligation to someone else, but we're all clear now. And this ain't going to be negative to anybody, not now.

I thank you so much for hanging in there, for continuing to be my friend, all the phone calls and emails and PMs - let me promise you, you were never 'bothering' me, as I tried to make clear to those of you who thought you might be annoying me. Never. I wanted to talk to you guys.

Now that nearly everyone is taken care of, and anything left hanging should be cleared up off the forum, I just wanted to very belatedly tell you thanks from the bottom of my heart.

Now let's have a martini and play some Bongos, shall we?

Jack

It's Just sad how at one time our Grandparents ruled this country with just a handshake
and Now we can't trust anyone for honesty and to do the right thing, there's not much pride in this country anymore, sad but it's reality.

I love this place and don't think for a second that I take for granted what you and the folks at EBMM do for us everyday.

 

[Fraxture]

New and fresh here, but from what I see of your actions and how much you take the time to apologize and to take care of everyone here says enough about your character and your kindness.

Actions will always speak louder than words, and yours are screaming with the right stuff.

I still consider my self "wet behind the ears" on this forum having joined it a year or so ago.
I have loved coming to this forum and hearing the banter then as I contributed more to the forum, being involved in the banter myself.

This sad story has been so gut wrenching to read about and I have truly felt for all those concerned and I hope that all "bridges have not been burnt".
Live is so short and boy do I realize that after my accident last year.

I hope things work out for everybody in this - but it will take considerable effort by some.

Hey lets get the bass forum and guitar forum combined and have one big forum???

Commendable words Bovine - commendable words indeed.

 

[Psycho Ward]

Well, Jack you sure were there for me brother and I’ll never be able to thank you enough! I too hope to get to hang out with Jack sometime in the near future.

Now back to the fun bs!

I'm glad to have had the opportunity to shake your hand, Jack. And, I'm glad I've had the opportunity to watch you interact with 100 other people, too.

It was obvious from your face at the time that you knew just exactly how lucky you were. You can't fake that. And, you obviously didn't take any of it for granted.

Anyone who refers to you as 'Blow Hard' is simply misinterpreting the flow of air--it's just that they suck.

I couldnt have said it better myself.

I loves me some Jackson.

Hey Wait Im blow hard...he is blow harder...

Jack I dont want to get carpel tunnel patting ourselves on the back but everybody got taken care of which I think is impressive since in October it looked impossible and in feb it looked futile.

Thanks for everything Jackie, and to all of the knuckleheads, Who loves ya , baby

 

[jasper383]

No idea at all what anyone is talking about here, but you are apparently doing something right, Jack.

You have the love and support of lots of people, many of whom you have never met. In this life, this may be all that matters.

 

[Big Poppa]

Is it a coincidence that the guys with the fewest posts like you the most?

Okay, now you've given me something to think about for the rest of the day.

 

[Big Poppa]

Whilst Ruminating On It Fred Check Your Post Count.

 

[cheezewiz]

Who loves ya Jackson!?

(Photographic proof....that if you hang out with Jack at any time, he may force you to get drunk)

 

[Big Poppa]

"Look Ma, No Boogers"

another low post count.....

Perhaps it is not a coincidence.

Hey, Jack, I loved you before these folks knew who you are. LOL
