But the MKI was built with that selection of transistors for a while... :whistle:

It's a good write-up! Leagues ahead of the garbage that appears in 'books' etc nowadays. Really have to nit-pick closely for mistakes this time. From what we know so far, it actually appears that some of the earliest 'large board'
MKII's predate the known surviving MK1.5-conversions (aka 'small boards').
yeah my Vintage and Rarities interview was butchered.... unfortunately the interviewer didn’t really understand what i was talking about... so bummed!!😕

Yup. Same with my Vintage and Rarities interview. They weren't so interested in telling the story accurately as getting pics of pretty pedals. Also, there are pics of a fake MG Zonk Machine that made it in there :hmm:

I was toying with the idea of buying that book, not sure I want to now 🤔 is it worth the big bucks they are asking?

I read the article in the supermarket. Bollocks to paying £6.50 for Guitarist. :hihi: Looked a good issue though with the Bluesbreakers Les Paul in. :freakout:

Investigate what your local public library service offers. The vast majority are subscribed to some sort of e-magazine provider, and it's all free of charge :tu:
