The only Moog I've ever owned is a Rogue. I can't comment on the Mini because
it's always been well out of my price range (although I was offered one for
100UKP about 10 years ago- and alas had no money at that time- bummer!)

Fair play

HAHAHAHA! You have obviously concocted the recipie of your own downfall!-
Surely if you don't want another fight about what suits who, then don't start
one! LOL!- As for lists, as you undoubtably know the same old questions
always come round and round again- that's just human nature. What confuses me
is why did you start off with this one again?- we're all converts to the
Annie, and buying an OB12 would to me be like choosing another brush to
complete a canvas- although it is OT if I were to waffle on about one brush
only- I would soon become a very lonely man!

best regards,

Tom
