Hi All!!

Further to Gordon's email, I can probably get hold of a quantity of these
things for between £15 and £25 each!!... Strangely, one of them also has a
cute little Nihon-Leslie (Transistorised) which may be procurable too. JS
has first refusal on this lot, but after him it's first come, first served.
Shipping will be the buyer's problem!... Not sure how well any of them work,
mind!!

What DOES work (though the internal speakers have been disabled and replaced
with a cleaner preamp output) is my WurliTzer EP200A which may be for sale
in the near future.

PS Great article Gordon!!
