Thanks Jim,
I thought it might have been the old “Photoshop ploy”.
Great idea, with a cool name.
A “Devil” of a serial number too.  
Sorry, I can resist anything but temptation.
Tony

Tony,

That headless cab is the Decapatron.

It's simply the lower section design of an M400, with some dimension changes to accommodate the M4000D. (And provides a storage box for my guitar pedals.)

#666 just sits on top.

  Hey Jim,
  What’s with the shot without a keyboard or cabinet to accommodate one.
  Does it have feet on both sides?
  Sure looks like a normal unit normal (access panel, swell pedal jack), except for the lack of keys.
  Thanks,
  Tony #510

  Looks like the lowest note is F. I never noticed that before.
