Any word on how the Tribotone folks' move is going? Their home page hasn't changed since the July posting. Hope things are going OK for them.
Thanks,

Have you tried calling Eric directly and asking? His phone number is listed on the website.

I bought a Tribotone Jerry Byrd steel last month. Although the response was slow (about a week between posts), I got my steel,

I ordered a K bar just 3 weeks ago, and as expected, I haven't gotten an invoice yet. I'm not inclined to bother them with a call if they're still in the middle of a big move.
So, just wondering how it's going for them. Thanks for replies.

I just bought a bar for my 12, I had to take what they had in inventory, but bought it through paypal without a hitch except maybe a little slow. But worth the wait!

That's encouraging, thanks. Which bar did you buy? Mine's for a D10. I currently have BJS bars, an old black Phoenix, a Paloma Stone, and a Stevens, all for different sounds with an fx box. Looking forward to trying a Tribotone.

I used a bar that belongs to Maurice Anderson and really liked it. I believe it was a C bar. He had a couple but that was the one I liked. Real happy with the one O have but I wish it was a half inch longer.

| When I was in Austin in October I met Eith Eric to get a bottleneck slide he had in stock. He told me he is moving the entire operation out of town to the country. More room more land. The move is going slowly, but he'll work with you...just get in touch with him...if he's got what you want in stock, he'll work with you. If not you'll likely have to wait |

Thanks James, that's helpful, I appreciate it.
I sent my order as per website directions on 11/6, understanding that I was ordering one of the most popular tone bars, and that it would be likely that it wasn't still in stock. So I understood at the time that it could take a month or two, maybe longer.
Course I'm anxious to see how it'll handle and sound, but I can hang loose for awhile.

I've been waiting for months & have had no reply to a question 2 weeks ago.
According to the site, they were hoping to have a bunch of stock to ship by the end of October.
I guess that didn't work out.  |
