My sweet Magnolia State story...
This is Not the T-Max I bought.
Within weeks, (sure that it was something I had done, or not done, or didn’t know), I brought it back to the shop. They couldn’t tell me what was wrong...I seem to remember it having to do with mixing the tube pre-amp with the big-bolls solid state amp?...this was 1996 (?)
The guys at the shop knew I was playing Every weekend, so they offered to let me take another Peavey amp while they figured it out...good guys!
The Very Next Day I get a call from Meridian!
‘Mr. Harp, we can’t have a customer spend That kind of money and be walking around unhappy...but we’re in a bit of a pickle here.’
(Oh, damn... Here it comes
)
‘I’ve talked with the dealer, and his tech. We’re not getting the job done long distance...
I’d love to ship you a new amp, but...
(Oh, damn...HERE it comes!
)
...our production line is closed for retooling; we’re getting ready for the new model year.
If you could just hold on for about 3 weeks, would it be ok with you if we shipped you Next Year’s Model?’
(You could have knocked me over with a
good stiff breeze!
)
I couldn’t say ‘Hell Yes!’ fast enough!!
True to their word, I played 2 weekends with the loaner amp...and a Brand New
T-Max showed up on my front porch on the Thursday before the 3rd weekend!
THAT, my social media buds, is the way to create Brand Loyalty!!
