[sdiy] Reticon R5101 Panasonic 3007 New batch?

[Nicholas Pelkey]

Not anymore.  If anyone has a 3007 let me know...

There is a movement by some NOS mxr enthusiasts to have the r5101 reproduced.  They will need to request a batch of 100,000 in order to get them produced.... check vintage guitar next month... there may be an ad on this topic.
