I have the Mandolin on the RH keyboard of my MkII and I can definitely 
recommend it. Very nice, especially when you're trying to fit "Spanish 
Eyes" or "La Paloma" into "Smoke on the Water". It's quite a nice 
sound. Spanish guitar (nylon strings) is also very good and you can 
even fool people into thinking it's the real thing if you voice it 
right.

PS So Martin's still pushing that "smooth organ?" I think he just does 
it because it sounds rather rude...
