Mahalo guys!

Chris I would not know a real 47 if you hit me over the head with one, but the Lawson does work for me. Gene seems like a great and genuine guy based on my limited phone interactions with him. I hope to eventually add his l251fet, which as you probably know will allow putting either capsule on either body. That and some tube pres (I also really like Pendulum), and I figure I am set for life for front end.
