**** Sierra-1 New Finishes -- The *Official Thread :)

[pj-]

Just to confirm, I was indeed kidding. Sorry if my post caused any trouble..

Dave, thanks for the info, it's always cool to hear about the inner workings of companies. The fact that you post so candidly here and on AVS is one of the reasons I like your company so much. I realize everyone involved is doing their best, and I'm in no real hurry as my CBM-170s are currently working great as mains. But seriously, if you could work on speeding up the passage of time that would be great.*




*not seriously

dave, thanks for the detailed explanation of where the process stands... any idea of a "guesstimate" of how long the premium finishes might take them? i understand it's a fluid situation (a friend of mine is in the same situation as you are, dealing with suppliers not necessarily having the cash flow they need)... just would like to have a rough idea...

you don't have to get the naturals and pianos shipped early... if those of us waiting on the premiums have to wait, make the rest of them wait too!

I can never remember exactly where I park my silver DeLorean, and I hate it when that happens!!

Damn lightning storms!!

Dave,
I've been away for a long time but wanted to stop in and see what's going on.

Delighted to see your sierra-1 developments.

Production and shipping resumes today!

I should also mention (since many are asking) that these are not a veneer, these cabinets are the same bamboo as the naturals... The bamboo itself has been specially dyed.

Enjoy!!!
