Laser-enscribed, as in SIDStation Final Edition #76.

Being more of a C64 enthusiast than a musician (though
I do play keyboards) I sat on buying one of these for
a long time.  Had a bit of a panic when I caught news
on it being in it's final print run, and when I
checked Electron's page and saw only 12 in stock, I
took that literally as 12 left and jumped in an bought
one...

Even though I feel I'm not using it to it's full
potential, I don't regret purchasing it - I swear I
can just sit there for hours fiddling with the patches
and listening to it - guess I just enjoy the 6581
sound too much!

Well, at least you grabbed it before the price increase (at 40 units
left).

There's certainly nothing wrong with that :-)

Lately, I haven't even been using the Sid for it's characteristic C64
sound; there's just so much you can do with it....
