Hey Art Do you know if Alembic has any red caps laying around the shop? I've been watching for a F-2B, but I'm pretty sure the missing cap combined with my OCD tendencies would make my head explode. |

Mike, I'll need to direct this question to Mica. I don't know exactly what's around the shop. My first guess would be that the red caps are not available due to their age - certainly never hurts to ask. Art |

Alembic still had a bunch of red caps when I picked up my F-2B a couple of years ago. Call Mica. Bill, tgo |

Cool. I just sent Tom the $$$ for this unit. I'm looking forward to playing with it (the F-2B, not my...). Now I'm on the lookout for a SF-2. I never have really used my Series I very much. With the F-2B, I think I'll be more inclined to use it to its full potential. I hate to bug Mica over the cap, but that really will drive me crazy!!! Anybody have the shop's phone number??? |
