While visiting Streetly a few weeks back, I noticed a photo on the wall of
Ryo, MS and JB flanked by various MkII's with the caption "Customer of the
Year". Make that "Customer of the Century"...and, of course, there was a 400 in a
road case with Ryo's name attached to it on the premises. My recent contacts
with Ryo prior to my acquisition of MkII #134 prove him out as one humble and
honorable individual.
