Hmm...

1) cheap crap-o shit CTS open-frame carbon trim pots (just like the original
921!)

2) open-frame panel carbon pots (worse than the original 921!)

3) No coax on audio leads

Sorry. I'll take a MOTM-300 VCO. Cheaper, too!

I know most people on this list probably know the story of the three Moogs.
It's kind of like the three little bears, except papa Moog has a new name
and baby (Cincinnati) Moog has been a very bad boy allegedly stealing
people's deposits for re-issue MiniMoogs that never came to be and
allegedly stealing some university's modular under the guise of repair.

So, I thought it interesting when I saw this on E-bay. Those of you that
may have original Moog VCOs, I am wondering how the construction compares.
I wonder how man modules were actually made and sold. I also wonder if any
of it was worth a damn from a construction. Not that I am interested in
any of it mind you. I already have found a good source of high quality
modular <snicker>. However, from a curiosity and historical standpoint....
Well, you see...
