Let me make this clear, I did NOT damage the unit. It has problems with crossthreading, ask a few Prodigy Version 1 owners. Hell, ask Steve himself. I build PC's, I play guitar, I am very good with my hands, which are small. I took care of it as well as I do anything I own, it was just a matter of time. It isn't the easiest endcap to put back on in the first place because of the tension etc. That and the threads being aluminum, is a recipe for crossthreading. Now, Steve has spoken, and he is taking care of my issue, which is all I ever wanted. so this thread can be closed if a mod so pleases. Thank you all for listening.
