Hello everyone,

I am the proud new owner of a M400s #1325! i bought it from a great guy named Steve that lives in Ontario. He's been the owner since 1983. He sold it to me because he had his eye on a high end acoustic guitar.

It came with the original muff cover and an extra tape frame (with original case) with three more sounds.

Its in decent shape for its age, but needs to be tuned up.

I'm curious if anyone knows someone on the east coast near Montreal that could show her some TLC.

And what are some things that i could do to make it sound a little better, i'm quit handy and i know how to solder.

I read that upgrading the motor control board is a good start.

Cheers, Alex
