Hi Berington,

That's a great idea that you came up with, especially since Martin told me that a heavy weight on top of the cabinet can cause the cabinet to go out of square. I had a Hammond XK3 which is way too heavy to put on top of a Tron, so I traded it in for a Hammond SK1. It's much lighter and won't damage the cabinet. I don't know what the cutoff point for weight that's safe to put on top is, but this thing weighs about 15 pounds and Martin says that's OK.

Bernie
