Actually I didnt sell it to a forum member. A guy in knoxville bought it to use for his history classes. He teaches history and wanted to be able to show the kid advances in recording technology.

I probably should start a thread outside of Yankee Trader about it, but ... is that sort of what EMG horns are made of?
