UNBELEIVABLY BAD SERVICE - ELECTRAGLIDE


I have just bought an Electraglide Fatman 2000 Gold. It is standard terminated with a 20 amp US wallplug. As I live in Norway, we operate on 240 volt. I have tried to find a receptable with the same pin configuration as the US 20 amp receptable which handles 240V with no luck. So I turned to Scott Hall from Electraglide for help. First he suggested that I use a standard 20 amp 120V US wall receptable. I called a local electrician to have him install it. He wouldn`t do it because it was only rated 120V and he also told me that me home insurance will not cover damages if I used this receptable. I checked this out and it turned out to be correct. I turned to Scott Hall again, told him what my electrician had said and asked him if he knew any receptables which would do or if he could reterminate the cord. The answer I got from him was this:

"Just put the Damn 20 amp us receptacle in!!!!!!!!How much more blunt can I be do it yourself!!!!!!Scott"

This means I probably will not be able to use the Fatman cord I bought. I think companies selling products at this pricelevel which provides such lousy service not to deserve to be in business. Therefor I want to warn you about Electraglide and also encourage you to stay away from them as I will.

Roy, I have been posted in other forums that: The comment was taken out of context!We meant it as a frustration relief in a joking manner sorry you took it wrong.All you had do is call us direct and not a third party and ask us to re-terminate your 3rd party cord.It would of been that simple.I still hate Shukco plugs,It may hurt the sound it may not.I guess we will see!?
Now on to other things:Since you were so shook up I am offering 25% off your Gengis Khans terminated with shukos.......Hope this calms you down a little..Thank-you Scott @ www.electraglideaudio.com
