ESK1276 Hi, I'm just wondering how one could find out how many ESK1276's were pressed. I understand it to be very rare. If you all would not mind, may I ask the question. How many people on this list actually own one? Tom ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Jan 2000 14:45:18 -0800 From: Joel Cairo Subject: Re: wondering how many? ESK1276 Tom: Given that at the time of its production the minimum press run for an item was generally 500 pcs., and the fact that it's a promotional item, probably either 500 or 1,000. That's strictly an educated guess, though-- short of an offical response (which you'd be unlikely to extract from the label), we'll probably never know for certain. I personally have owned 3, but I would be the first to tell you that it's a tough item to find-- the type of stations it would've been sent to (Jazz or AOR... **possibly** some pop) either probably discarded it shortly after receiving it, or are still sitting on it in their archives. It's also possible the piece had low distribution... interestingly enough, none of the 3 that I've bought came from radio stations. - -Kevin soundman@inetarena.com "tom, kelly & jordan" wrote: > > Hi, > I'm just wondering how one could find out how many ESK1276's were pressed. > I understand it to be very rare.

Judging from Kevin's response it appears to be some type of first-cut, or a promotional item...? TIA. - --Jim __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
