Fred McNiff - Contact details anyone?

Post by industrial_gypsy » Thu Feb 02, 2006 8:07 am

Does anyone know if the Moog repair guy, Fred McNiff, is still operating. If so, anyone got an email address for him?

Cheers

I believe Fred has retired from the synth repair business.

Cheers for the replies. I'll drop him a line regardless, see if anything comes back. I'm after a 'new' pair of wheels for my Prodigy if anybody's listening.

Thanks guys

I wrote him an email a few days ago - still waiting for an answer...
I really miss Fred, he is a nice good guy.
If anybody knows anything about him I would like to get these news.

I've had no response to date from Fred either, he may be away on holiday though?

I got a reply from him about 6 months ago when I was looking to buy some replacment modulation wheels for my Source and Minimoog. The prices he quoted were half of what they were asking at other places.

The next month I emailed to ask how to go ahead with the deal and I never heard back from him.....

Sounds like he has retired........
Thanks Bob!!
