Howard, Why blame Gibson/Oberheim for a promise made by Musician's Friend? I can certainly understand Buck's frustration. I don't like it when people lie (intentionally or no) to me either. My own experience with Banana's at Large was very positive. They where honest about the wait when I ordered and they phoned me the day they shipped it out, giving me the UPS tracking number so I could watch it crawl towards me. That said, you should only plunk down the (considerable) pile of cash for the EDP if you think it will meet your needs. ranting yet again, Jim Howard Harawitz <howard@brooknorth.com> on 10/14/98 02:56:39 PM Please respond to Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com To: Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com cc: (bcc: Jim M Shepherd/Tivoli Systems) Subject: Re: ECHOPLEX Hi, Someone who spoke to someone at Gibson, or even someone who works there, can post what they like in an email message to this list, but it certainly is not reassuring in light of the message excerpt below. I am extremely reluctant to order an Echoplex from anyone at this point. IMHO, if they are really interested in selling these things, Gibson/Oberheim needs to deal with these issues.
