Just wanted to say thank you to David Gage and the shop for helping me out with my SoundClip. I purchased one back in September, but there was a looseness and some rattling. I called the shop and spoke with David. He swapped out the pup and sent me the latest revision. I used it tonight for the first time, and I must say, it's outstanding!! On top of that, the shop expedited the shipping for me so I'd have it in time for a gig. Thanks for the outstanding customer service guys!!
