Steve Meade is the man

So here is a totally, " Cool story bro" post. Yesterday, before my birthday which is today, my girlfriend got me some great gifts. The gifts are GREAT, BUT aside from the focus, this story is the better part.

I opened my gift bag with a bunch of white boxes. For those of you that have ordered SMD products, you KNOW the style of these boxes. I instantly knew what I was looking at. I open the first narrow box, BOOM, an SMD OM-1. Two more boxes contain the same thing, which is awesome because I have a 4 channel and a mono amp, so one OM-1 per gain pot. The last box contains a CC-1, which is SUPER awesome. I'm not sure many guys in my area have the CC-1, maybe one guy I can think of. There is also a hat, signed by the man himself( so was the CC-1) and like 16 SMD stickers. All great gifts from a very thoughtful girfriend.

So here is where the story comes in:

A couple months ago my girlfriend sent an email to Steve at WCCaudio and she didn't expect what she got. She told Steve that my birthday was coming up and that she wanted it to be special for me. She knows I love his products and knew that buying something of his for my birthday would be much appreciated and very useful. She is very supportive of this hobby and of arriving I'm passionate about.

So, a few days later Steve emails back. He tells her that need be happy to make the birthday special and that she should visit WCCaudio.com and check out products and to hit him up with what she might like to order. They email each other for the last couple months here and there and he responded super promptly to all of her emails.

He told her that he would hook her up on the price, since its a gift I didn't ask the price, but she said when she added the products to the cart in WCC site it was definitely less expensive than what they listed. On top of that, he did he's throwing in goodies, the signed, fitted hat, and stickers were a bonus. She told me about all of this happening and plays me back a voicemail he left her letting her know the package shipped.

And here comes the coolest part. This morning, while at breakfast with my girl, she shoves her phone in my ear. A familiar voice says,"Hello, is this Justin?" and I was like holy crap. Steve called to wish me a happy birthday and to ask what I was up to today. It was super cool talking to him and I was like mind blown. It wasn't even my girlfriend's idea to have him call, HE wanted to make it special and he followed through and made the call. My girl is the best as well and I'm proud to have that chick.

I was already a member for life and was fully planning on repping for SMD and being an advocate for the forum and for Steve/ car audio in general. I would have ran the SMD logo on my truck REGARDLESS, but he has earned the real estate on my back window for an SMD sticker for life. Thank you Steve, and Jamie says thank you also, you're the best. You went WAY above the call of duty and I seriously appreciate it.

P.S. This is typically the kind of thread that Steve pops up in with the Pawn Star "Cool story bro" meme
