RE: Echoplex repair time



yer getting all riled for nothing there Doug, sorry for the confusion. I
wasn't saying *you* were full of BS, and I don't think that's what Travis
was saying either. Triple S is what we were talking about. It's absurd that
they would spend 4 months trying to fix something as relatively simple as
the echoplex hardware. You could replace every part on the PCB in less than
a day, if you needed to, and maybe spend a couple more for test and burn
in, tops.

In fact, I'm trying to help you out. That's why I got involved and
contacted Gibson to make sure something was changed here. I don't
understand why nobody ever contacted me if they had an echoplex problem
they couldn't figure out, since we do make ourselves available to Gibson
just for that sort of thing. And Gibson people were surprised that you had
waited this long. So I'm trying to make sure that whatever is wrong with
your's gets fixed quickly, and that in the future these guys don't sit on
problems like this forever, and if they can't figure out something, they
know where to get help.

happy? sorry you thought I was after you.
