Much needed shout out to treyhaislip

Hi,
I know there are 1 or 2 other places I could put this, but I know everyone who knows him will see it here.
treyhaislip went beyond the call of duty for me. He understood my problem about playing too loud in a Condo, and knew this would help me A Lot! Out of pure generosity, he decided to send me a great carlsguitar.com Speaker Soak, without even asking. It came today, I will use it tomorrow.
I wanted to thank him publicly, he said he has had his fair share of bad luck, but he also said he had caught a few good breaks too.
So this is his way of "paying it forward" to me, just a fellow forumite who could use this. He lives way the hell and gone from me, took pains to check up on it's arrival time, packed it like a factory expensive item. Didn't even ask for shipping and handling - in fact, told me not too. He even went so far as to pm me back many times, and explained how to use it, make sure it didn't get hot, no more than 2 hours, keep it away from flammables, etc.
So I wanted him to know how much I appreciate that, in public, so every one knows how cool this guy is. In the old days, he'd be known as a "Stand Up Guy" ....these days I guess the slang would have to be "He Da Man". Thanks treyhaislip.

Trey is a great guy I met him in a similar fashion on the SDUGF. I was having problems with a middle pickup in my Strat and he hooked me up with a killer pickup. He is a selfless guy and an asset to the SDUGF.

I'll "third" that idea. I've bounced many ideas and traded thoughts on many subjects with the guy and he's always full of fresh thoughts and insights.

Kudos Trey! You're one of the people in this world that makes me realize it isn't just full of ****** bags! [emoji12][emoji41]

Trey is definitely a good dude. One time I mentioned that I liked some vinyl picks that he made from records, and how they were so neat. Next thing I know he asked for my address, and I didn't think much of it, so I pm'd it to him. Next thing I know I checked my mail a few days later, low and behold he sent me a few of those plus a Tusq pick.
Small gesture, but it just solidifies everyone's sentiment about how nice of a guy he is. :)

Wow, thank you all for the kind words. This forum has been a great asset to me for learning more about pickups, techniques, tricks and such for getting great tone and other guitar/music related things.

Thank you SB for the specific shout out, I hope it can help you prepare for the upcoming gig–hope you can get a clip of it up. For those who don't know, SB has the chops and well worth listening to his guitar playing!
