Happy July-4th Holiday greetings Jeff and gang,
M400's began with the prototype , #100 , which JB/Martin have serviced.
Earliest production M400 still extant and known to me in the
USA is M400 #104, belonging to a chap (who wishes to remain anonymous),
in Bucks County, PA. Has a front panel headphone jack, brass capstan,
and CMC4 motor controller. These items were carry-overs from the previous
SFX and M300 units.
Stop-in at Chateau-Moto in Glen Mills over the July-4th holiday.
Will see 'ya there ! -JK-
