Personally I think email has had its day and there are far more effective forms of communication. A good old fashioned phone call is still the best method of resolving disputes and complications IMO. To many issues are compounded with hasty texts and tweets that can’t be retracted or the tone or context understood. From a business PoV telephone conversations are terrible because unless you record every call (and if you do you also need the consent of the whoever is on the other end of the line) there is no permanent record of what was said. Having been stung in the past by "agreements" made during phone calls I no longer do any business solely on the basis of a telephone conversation. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A phone call usually needs an email confirmation so it all boils down to email again. I can set up an out of office reply on my email. Why can't a small business? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can explain in depth if you want to be bored rigid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Percy Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 I recently acquired a Status S4000. They're not the most desirable model but they're as rare as hen's teeth and I love it. Bought some double ball end Elites and couldn't get them to tune in before I ran out of tension so I emailed Status and Rob sent me several replies to assist. In the end they had some 45-100 strings made up for me as they were out of stock and they are now on the bass and working perfectly. Can't praise Status enough. If I could bring myself round to selling a couple of my collection I'd have no hesitation in ordering a new S2. Which will probably happen soon!! 🤣 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
