Re: EMG on Ebay
A great price for a lovely machine.
I hope it's going to Graham and a new horn.

Re: EMG on Ebay
Let's hope so, as I shared the details with Graham as soon as I saw the listing.
The case and fittings look very sound and unmolested, just as collectors like to find them. With a suitable horn and the electrics checked over, it will be a fine machine.

Re: EMG on Ebay
Good afternoon all, and yes, I was the lucky bidder but I have not yet seen the item. A friend has collected for me and will be able to deliver in a month or two hopefully. Apparently the vendor's late brother bought it in a Derby antique shop 30 years ago but minus the horn so it has not had much recent use---hence the good condition. I do actually have a spare original Xb horn in stock and, of course, the option of using one of the new Oversize horns. I have long wanted another Mk X base unit which will now enable us to have an instrument to use outdoors on summer evenings instead of the Mk IX which was a little unstable. The sound is even more magical (if that's possible !) in the walled garden.
Thank you for the alert Roger.
Good thoughts. Graham.
