Don't fancy the TT; but, I'd be gigglin' like a silly boy if I had the EMT gear.
And, it's got................. TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBS. (yes, I meant, valves)
Lyrics are the ramblings of man, sometimes inspired by The Creator, most often, not.
But music (melodies, harmonies, rhythms), that's God stuff.
Always was. Always will be.
One of the biggest lies ever told was that only certain kinds of people should listen to certain kinds of music.

It's the versatility I like the look of. Despite appearences, many of the functions can be switched out or bypassed.Yum, yum - 'old school lab look' sex-on-a-stick!! VU meter-mayhem
