Re: [Doepfer_a100] sawing a G6 in half

2007-05-31 by Silas Johansen

I was about to offer to trade my G3 for your G6 and pay for shipping both
ways, but then I realized that your system probably runs on 110V and mine
runs on 220V - but you can surely find someone on your side of the pond that
has grown out of their G3 and trade with them.

Cheers,

Silas
