Hi Jon,

The MKII has a very bright sound when taken directly from the preamp and the original MKII Violins are much brighter than the M400 docttored violins despite them being the same takes.  HOWEVER, Mike Pinder decidede to roll off the top end almost completely to achieve the smooth lush sound of the Moodies albums.  It's just an eq trick and not a lot else.  The Moodies would have sounded like Spring or KC had he left the sound as is.
