Even though it might be a good idea to install a Kahler, would you please run it by Dargin because he has taken a keen interest in your issues. This way I wont get in trouble if you run into problems putting that kahler in. His Email is [email protected]. Once agan if you could put in a good word for me it would help as there are now rumors of downsizing in the customer service dept. I have bills to pay and children and an ex wife and huge credit card bills. I NEED this job! Thanks, buddy!

First i sent the first mail by your recommendation , didnt got an answer back yet

second- you wrote me before that you wont gonna build my guitar unless you get the credit for it........

so lets make deal -you give the word to build it for me ill give you the credit that you want from my credit card ........

If someone there is interesting in my issue its great , i think that if EBMM will start to copy the spec' of luke neck to some other MM model as a normal line , you will probably increase your sells a lot ......... and then they wont downsize your section .......... when you gonna bring this issue up to the table in your border meeting ......and you gonna have a lot of applause just remeber me :)

I cant keep this up. Do some homework on the forum and see if you can figure out who I am.

Hint....I can't be fired.

I also cant make custom one off dream guitars, we just aren't set up for it. There are over 80,000 existing combinations already and there is almost a six month wait as iit is. My suggestion is to find the model closest to you preferences and be happy.

thanks for being a good sport

Alrighty. I'm am done with this. I will let this one pass simply on the hope you have no idea who Big Poppa is. Dudley designs guitars and basses for EBMM. Let me tell you this....he is a master of bringing out the best in guitars and basses with his innovative and "out the box" thinking. Sterling Ball, owner, a.ka. Big Poppa approves of all designs and even puts his enlightenment into the designs. He makes sure we are happy....point blank....

I will tell you this....Sterling is NOT small poppa. That is quite frankly being disrespectful to the man who is also my friend. I will not tolerate it on HIS forum as most will not. You are out of line and an apology is warranted here.

Dudley is a super cool dude and I have much respect for him and his work. We are all thankful for his ideas. If you ever meet him, you will see for yourself how much of a super cool dude he is.

Big Poppa is one of the most generous individuals I know. I have said it before and will say it again....the world needs a million more like him. You have NO idea how much a statement like that irks me. I have been there for his generosity and for know how much he cares about the business, but as one of us and he does not distance himself from his customer base. YOU should be thankful for his interest and participation on the forum.

DO NOT disrespect him. It will not be tolerated. Your next post in this thread should be an apology for a statement like that. He has given his life and blood to this business. He has given his life to his family.....nothing "small" about that. I want to state something on his generosity, but on the promise to Big Poppa, I will not as it was his wish and I will honor that.

Shimi....we have had fun with this and a dream guitar is just that. A dream with changing an artist signature model. IT WILL NOT HAPPEN UNLESS THE ARTIST SAYS SO.

Rant over. :cool:

Hey Shimi
There isnt an instrument in our line that dudley and I didnt colaborate on, Some more Dudley, some actually more me. It is a TEAM. Dudley and I have been together for over twenty years without a conflict or disagreement.

Your rambling posts complaining about the Y2D neck when you haven't played it are getting tiresome. Play the guitar first and then decide if it needs a different neck or trem system.

Amen BP - I think a lot of the forumites have tried to put an end to this but eventually you have to say enough is enough. There are a huge amount of people who appreciate and support what you and Dudley (and the Ball offspring) are trying to achieve. You cant satisfy all the people all the time but you really satisfy many of us most of the time :)
