Oopsdabassist Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Fine by me, I love my Eden gear and Marshall service is:- A: bloody brilliant and B: a 30 second walk from work! Edited December 31, 2011 by Oopsdabassist Quote
JTUK Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 hmmm. . I hate these corporate moves... and if bean counters get near production, then..????? Oh well, Things have moved on since Eden were top of the pile, anyway. Ditto SWR. Quote
risingson Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Eugh. I see a Gibson/Trace Elliott scenario. In any case I love my Eden WT800 and 410XLT setup, I'd actually be totally fine playing it for the rest of time. Quote

I think the cheap Marshall stuff is made in India. Obviously doesn't matter where it's made, but the quality of the parts and the quality control. Let's see how this is gonna work out. Quote
Lozz196 Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Yep, the early problems with the MB bass-amps were due to them not being put together as well as they could have been in India. A mate of a mate - yes that old story - who works at Marshall said he hated the MB range, as they literally had to redo much of it, once it landed on our shores, to make it fit for sale/purpose.

Kiwi Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 The official announcement is here: [url="http://www.eden-electronics.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=18795"]http://www.eden-electronics.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=18795[/url] Quote
Matt P Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 having read the official statement it seems like a good thing, moving production back to usa should boost sales over there and over here it should get a little easier to get hold of eden gear (judging by the number of shops that stock Marshall) and of course theres the legendary Marshall customer support (i've got a few of the guitar amps myself) matt Quote
Lozz196 Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Yep, I like Eden cabs, but getting hold of them, especially the lower range ones, such as Nemesis, and EX Range, is difficult to say the least. Quote
