Greg should be in possession of the "Microphonico-tron" (forgot the s/n) that caused nasty feedback at ProgWest a few years ago. If you knocked on the lid you could hear it loud a clear over FOH. Turned out to be the headblock being shorted to the frame, due to a problem with the non-conductive washer on one of the headblock retention springs. Taking it apart and putting it back together right fixed it right up.
 
He does tend to loan it out a lot so it may not be there...
