Had a similar experience with Guitar Center: called one in NY, they took
my order of several pieces (1 FQ, 1 EQK, 1 mofx, 2 WF, 3FF - I had two
friends of mine combining in with me), said no problem, plenty's coming,
everything's getting restocked. 3/8 my order came in: FQ, EQK, WF. They
said they'd restock in a week, it was coming they swore - except for the
mofx, which they said was never on their order, wasn't being restocked &
they offered to special order it from Electrix at full retail price of
over $400. I called another Guitar Center a fellow list member recommended
in Portland Oregon: they got me the other five pieces. I was nice enough
to call a couple of days later and cancel the remaining order in NY: they
hadn't restocked yet and had no idea when the shipment'd arrive. I'm
tempted to buy a spare WF and put it in storage in case mine ever goes
bad, as I really appreciate what I can do with it.

best,
Steve
