+1 I went to a WaWa recently (a convenience store that is like 200% better than any 7-Eleven out there! ) and ordered a sandwich with light mayo. The idiot put horseraddish on it instead! Yeah, that combined with my Crohn's = uber bad day for Matt.

So I wrote them a letter explaining that I love their store but recently had a bad experience that caused me bodily harm (no joke although it might seem funny ) and they apologized profusely, said they would straighted out that store and have a talk with all the employees (not sure if that happend or not) and sent me a $20 gift card. Woot, 3-4 free sandwiches and I haven't had one messed up since then! I say you go the same route here dude, although I doubt D'Addario will give you a sandwich.

So proclaims Boober, master smooth talking mofo and getter of good stuff. This includes the Bob-Sonic a custom DiMarzio. If memory serves I think he gave Steve Blucher at DiMarzio the best phone sex ever for it.

* ohio_eric has been in withdrawal not being able to give Bob shit for months. He has a lot of catching up to do.

Yep, case in point, Eric. It got me a free, custom made pickup AND a free D Activator 7. Not bad.

To each his own I guess. I love D'Addario strings and never had problems with them.

It's not that the bars are a big deal, it's the principle of it. It's amazing that people have such small testicles that they can't simply put their name after negging someone.

The worst I ever got from D'adds was like, a little bit of rust on one string.

I've been using D'addario for years and never had a problem. I would never just buy one pack of strings though. I always get at least two just in case.
