There used to be an M2 in a studio here in town. It's now probably yours or Brian Kehews.
Anyway I was amazed at the width and shape. It would take a very wide person to carry it comfortably!!

I have had an M1 and still have my M2 – let me tell you……the M1 I could lift alone, even in the anvil case, but the M2 even outside its fiberglass case is a two-man job…..

Mark- even in dreams the Riviera could give you a hernia! Beautiful though- do I remember seeing a studio in the West coast auctioning one off a couple of years ago? An M2 would be perfect- double keyboard- 12 tracks, 1/2 inch tape- fits in a station wagon! Why can’t someone revive the M series?
