RE: EBow Guestlist Entry

[Greg Sundberg <gregsun@MICROSOFT.com>]

I can beat that 2 word reply.  I sent an email to ebow asking if they plan
on marketing a 6 string version that would fit into a standard pickup slot
(i.e. a Fernandes sustainer, but as we all know ya can't buy 'em without
buying the whole damn guitar).

Their response: "Yup."

I sent a follow up asking if they could elaborate.  Their repines: "Nope."
They did stretch themselves and added a few extra words:

>> "Sorry. We found it better to say nothing until a 
>> product is actually fully manifest. Avoids the 
>> onslaught of questions. It's NOT just around the corner."

So I'm not holding my breath -- but I'm refraining from buying a Fernandes
sustainer for now (although I did see one on Ebay for $500....  oops, wrong
thread) :^)

Here's the question I posed to EBow re last week's thread, and their
two-word reply:
