RE: Musicians friend Price politics

Maybe the universe lowered its prices while the EDP stayed the same. ;)
It's all relative according to Einstein; we'd never perceive it.  (I bet
Gibson winked... writing-on-the-wall type thing, so your theory sounds
good.)

Musician's Friend's knows which way the wind is blowing re/EDP if anyone.
And nobody's talking about EDPs beyond the as-yet shipped units.  I imagine
EDP sales don't bring in truckloads of cash for Gibson.  I say sell the EDP
division to a non-karaoke company!  ;)  Seems somebody would dig to 
slapping
their name in front of "Echoplex".  Or change it to the "DigiTech 
Geckoplex"
or something.

It'll be interesting to see what happens next commercially.  The next cat's
meow... is it Matthias and the rumored Chameleon "Echoplex" skin?  G4s and
Ableton?  Kyma X plus  Capybara plus LCK (plus arms and legs and
firstborns)?

Although I doubt this but has anybody considered that
maybe Gibson raised the price of the units causing MF
to raise their prices in the catalog?
