OT: Steinberger Guitars

Sorry about the OT. I was just looking at the Ed Roman Guitars site, 
checking to see if there was an update on Steinberger. 

Check out what it says: "The factory has still not reopened, It now 
appears that they are never going to reopen.   

  I believe that at the rate they are going they won't ship any product 
until 2002......Steinberger Patents are all expiring. By Sept 2000 I will 
be making bridges that retrofit."

Anyone know if this is true? If it is, it is "music to my ears", so to 
speak. I might actually be able to get that left handed Klein w/ lefty  
Trans-Trem that I've been dreaming about, eventually. (I'm, of course, 
left handed and I only know about one lefty Trans-Trem: Ned Steinberger 
created the lefty version at the request of the Cars's Elliot Easton. I've 
never heard about or seen another, ever.)

Sorry again for the OT, but I thought someone on here might know some more 
about this and seeing how many of you on here use Steiny's, it seems like 
a good place to ask.

Ben Porter.
