• The one I played was #005 which is the same one Ryo is nowselling on e-Bay.
• I played it at Streetly some years ago when it was being renovated
• I found the sound reproduction pretty crummy, and the clatteringof the cartridges distracting
• I also found the key action horrid. I found it heavy, hugely'oversprung' and more tiring on the hands than even the Mellotron.

Mike, you're avoiding the questions. When and where did youplay one, and who did it belong to. Your first email was pointed andfilled with opinions. Fair enough. But in his rebuttal, Dave asked fairquestions. Your retort was silly. Support the reasons for your opinion.I think that's reasonable. There isn't one credible word in thestatement below.

No, Frank. Dave's response was rude. He called Mike a liar,did he not? I don't think you'd be too happy if someone you didn't knowcalled you a liar. If Dave wanted questions answered, he should haveasked them in a civilized manner. It's lucky that Mike is just so damnnice about these kinds of things.

Or not.
