Dearest Audio Plumbers,
To end all speculation, I am the seller of the half set on eBay.
I got these from Eric Reiswig of BC UPS, who was extremely helpful with me during the whole Purchase / Shipping / Setup process.
Although it is true that this set did spend some time in a pawn shop, and that indeed the back “D” hole was moved by Casey himself during construction, Eric, being a budding and quite promising new maker in his own right, and close liaison with Rob Moore, went through this set thoroughly before he sold it to me, and I’m sure would vouch for their lovely performance. Indeed, Eric stated that he preferred the sound of the drones on this set to his own.
I’m selling 1) because I’ve been laid off, times are tough & everything must go (break my heart) and 2) because there is no compensating for lack of talent. My only wish is that this set goes to someone who will utilize them to the fullest.
I don’t know why if you click on “Seller’s Other Items” the auction posting comes up a second time (with the same posting #!), but it most certainly isn’t a scam. As the site states, I have a bunch of other photos for those who would like to request them.
