Don't expect a reply from Auditech. He was more into the vintage guitar scene the last time I saw him (over a year ago) and he rarely (if ever) stops by AK anymore. Haven't seen him at the thrift stores for ages...
I was wondering what happened to him - for a while there he was pulling down pallet loads of gear every week...I think he stumbled onto a GW warehouse facility!
Oh, another reason there's not likely to be a reply - his original post dates from 2004. Talk about night of the living post...
