I did not try to call Gibson directly. >Anybody know what's up? >Ed Ed I am very much still here. Little has changed since Tom left and we are still on the same page. Since Tom was always so active on the Looper site, I chose to remain silent for the most part. There is no way that I could compete with him in the one liner department. I also spend a lot of time answering the volumes of email that I receive through the Gibson web site as well as phone calls from consumers and dealers. I keep in close touch with our tech in coordinating repairs and staying informed of problems and changes. I am also the guy that ships out your repairs and replacements. I have gained a lot of hands on knowledge about the Echoplex as well as the Oberheim keyboard products. Even though I am a guitar player, I am Midi literate so I ended up being the Oberheim Customer service guy. In addition to handling Oberheim customer service I also handle customer service for Slingerland drums. A full plate indeed. I am a consumer as well. A gear head. A musical toy junkie. From my pawn shop buying sprees, I have owned just about one of everything . I am one of you except that I am a novice looper. I didn't get my hands on an Echoplex until November of last year.I have learned a lot from you folks. Though my postings to this group may be few and far between, please don't take it as a lack of interest or anything like that. I very much believe in the Echoplex and looping in general. If you need individual help, please send me email. thanks Pat "son of Spaulding" Murphy (not to be confused with son of sam) pmurphy@gibson.net 1-800-283-7135 ext 348
