RE: Where to get EDP+?

["Andy Ewen" <andy.ewen@btinternet.com>]

An ex-Trace person would say, 'what a load of old rubbish'. No one has
gone out of business; we still have 350 new EDPs waiting for Gibson to
pay for them. It doesn't need to be 'made again' it just needs paying
for. Disgraceful behaviour.

Interesting.  I wonder what the Trace people in the UK would say.... :-)

Any one looking for an EDP, you might want to keep on (politely) banging
the
Gibson door.  The more noise, the more likely this product will be made
again.
