I guess I won't risk it and just keep the original. I probably have
one of the best condition MS-20s left in the world. Paid a pretty
penny for it a couple of years ago, but it basically looked like it
came out from the box. It would be good enough for the Pope.

I'd still like to try the A-106, but I refuse to visit my local
dealer anymore as he's turned into a real ass. I hate him so much
that I prefer to buy from Analogue Haven and suffer with duties and
taxes.
