[sdiy] Codovox White Elephant Moog / Satellite aka GhettoMoog

[Bob Weigel]

Wow..Loscha.  I think we have the plastic shell for it :-).  You'll have 
to deal with Paul Haugen to get it..who is desperate to make payments on 
some things.  But I'm sure if you talk to him he'll off it for something 
reasonable.  I didn't see the kind of shape that it's in.  BUT I was 
just in the storage yesterday and the other guy with me from Berkely, 
pointed out what it was as he was looking everything over. -Bob
