Sadness.



Our bassist had a Heathkit bass amp he built with his father. The bassist and his amp joined his 1960-something T-Bird in an unintentional sudden deceleration. The amp cabinet didn't survive, but the bass chassis did. Thereafter he found that the tall aluminum frontpiece of the chassis, so made to provide an added heatsink, was a great screen for all the beer bottles he ranked on the amp chassis top like so many soldiers.

 
Mike is the best.
Send it back now.  I'd be willing to bet you won't do it again.
This. I wish Hamer was still around to properly fix some chips and dings from mishaps I and friends have put into my small harem. Don't wait for a someday that may never come.

Nah - finish issues (owner inflicted, and sometimes otherwise) weren't covered under the warranty!

 
Just got off the phone with Mike, and the first thing out of his mouth was "Send it back, I'll fix it right up".

How f***ing cool is that?!

As great as the offer was, I won't need to send it back for that.

... but it was really cool....

And Steve - as much as I appreciate your generous offer, I'm going to wait at least until I do it again.
Yeah, I wouldn't send it back either. My luck would be to trade off a small chip for having my guitar gored by a fork truck.

I used to send out small containers of paint to customers who had chipped paint on speaker cabinets.

I mixed up to 10 different custom colors.  If they wanted me to do it, I just charged them a nominal fee.

Me, I wouldn't chance it either, but the fact that Mike said what he did is outstanding!
