A lot of things have changed in the last half year since my original posting. I was unable to begin work on support again in January as I thought: I am somewhat wiser these days and less optimistic.

It is likely that following the empeg meet in July I will again have access to my spare parts collection and service stock, meaning I should be able to reactivate support activities and begin repair work again. Sorry about the extended delay, folks - I have been reading about people's difficulties with their players and squirming knowing that the repairs are simple and the parts are simply out of reach.

I'll let you know as soon as I have more news.
