Thanks for the emails, all... I'm currently working with Jay F. to purchase his Mk2a (just sent off the paypal pmt). If my eBay auctions go well (selling off some OOP CD's), I might come back here to buy a third one, or I might just go pay someone to let me lie underneath a Guinness tap for an hour or so instead

Btw, I still need a tuner and a pointer to someone reputable to do a lighted button kit install... I emailed the Eutronix guys but not sure if they are still around or not since I didn't get a response.
If you either have a tuner or know of someone who I can trust with my baby long enough to install the lighted buttons please let me know! I am a fair hand at soldering, but I'm not nearly confident enough to trust myself with my empeg...
