Yup, confirmed that my EDP will be available tomorrow, and scheduled to ship the day after. I ordered it late April. Matthew and David, I've been a Musician's Friend customer for years (~three). Why would you think you needed to respond to their backorder notice emails? There is nothing in them that indicates a need to respond. If your item was inexplicably cancelled (and I mean absolutely out of the blue), then yeah it was a serious goof on their part. Is that what you're saying? Out of the clear blue sky, to your shock and amazement, your order was canceled? -----Original Message----- From: Lance Zechinato Sent: Monday, June 28, 2004 7:49 PM To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: RE: EDP/MF availability Kevin, thanks for the update. Much appreciated. This will be my first EDP. I ordered it by Web in late April. I'm new to the Gibson/EDP/manufacturer controversy, so I don't have any questions. Regarding Musician's Friend and backorder notices, I've never gotten one. I ordered mine over the Web, and I just check the status of my Web order. Still shows it's on backorder. I assume that's because they haven't yet sent out all the EDPs on backorder.

Some of you I know from my last tour here. Most US backorders were finally shipped to dealers last week and should be in the process of arrival. MF backorders were filled and some extra inventory sent for future orders. We are also able to ship internationally for the first time. We are shipping EDPP to Europe this month. My apologies for all of the confusion and disappointment of late. I left in February of 2003 and it seems shipments have been weak since. Going forward, the EDPP should ship regularly, depending on demand, but our ability to meet orders is much improved. I'm happy to try and answer any questions in regards to the EDPP product availability, future plans, etc. as well as hear any suggestions. As one guy trying to manage the EDPP and the Gibson amp range, my time gets tight but I do respond to every reasonable question and comment as soon as I can. Thank you for your support and patience.

I didn't, and now I'm at the end of the backorder list!! > Lovely. Six months of waiting down the drain. I did respond to the notification I received by e-mail *and* by phone and they cancelled mine anyway. I called them up and told them that I wanted my order reinstated in the queue in the original order. They said they would do that but who knows if they did or if it's even possible. > MF has 45 EDPs on order. Make that 46. As of today, MF has not > received any EDPs. No new ETA is available. That's not that many considering that they have been advertising these as being available in every single catalog they've sent me in the past 6 months. I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't even get mine due to them screwing up and cancelling my order. - Dave
