Hi Gang, Surely the MK-I and II models with valve preamps contributed to that
"classic" and different violin sound from later solid-state models. And surely the
3-violins EQ were "toned-down" for the M400 series,making them less harsh.

BTW, work is proceeding nicely on "Julia", it surely will be done early next year.

Cheers, Shirley MacLaine and Shirley Bassey
