Hi Everybody,
First of all, thanks to everyone who has purchased from our new e-
store at www.stoogeindustries.com. The response to our new site has
been great. We will be adding items to the store on a regular
basis, so check back often.
Anyway, here's an update on your favorite stooge items:
Flat Rails - You have run us out of stock, but more are on the way.
These will be the first ones we have made in house. We have built a
jig for doing the cutting and drilling. We have a powder coater
lined up, and we just received enough steel to make close to 1000.
So they will be back in stock soon. We will also start stocking the
wood screws to mount these to your cabinets as well as the machine
screws.
Brackets - We are out of stock of the flat plate bracket. We still
have everything else in stock. Once we get the turret press set up
later this month we will run brackets first. We will also be adding
a couple of new bracket styles.
Cables - We have received about 300 cables so far out of our order
of 2000. I will start adding these to the e-store this coming
week. We will have a very large variety of colors and lengths in
stock. We will also be set up soon to take orders for custom cables
through the e-store.
Panels & End Caps - Coming Soon! - We have managed to move all the
tooling from Chicago: - Over 25,000 lbs! The press itself will be
moved on the 15th. We are having tests done this week with laser
engravers to determine the feasability of replacing the silkscreen
process while retaining the exact look of the MOTM standard panels.
We hope to be ready to start panels by the end of the month.
Modules - Once we have the panels up and running, we will be
announcing the first of the Stooge Modules under our Synth Systems
brand. We have received Paul Schreiber's kind permission, as we are
not going into the business of competing with him. We expect the
initial announcement to include 5 modules, mostly utility type
modules. We will not announce any module until we have an actual
working prototype, with sound files and the plans in place for
production. We do expect to include Larry's JLH-822 Octave Interval
Switcher. These will be full kits, similar to the Synth Tech kits.
We may also offered assembled versions. We are also working on a
couple of mods for existing MOTM modules. More on that later.
Website - We will be adding to this very soon, including pictures of
Stooge Products being manufactured.
Thanks again for your business and your patience.
