MOTM

Would you be willing to reveal the make and part number, as well as where we 
might find these? Also what modules might use a different brand of pots do to 
other considerations (like rotation life)? And what does YMMV mean? (You make 
me vomit? You might mind Vishnu? Yellow mellow marshmallow velour? Yeti makes 
meal of vegetarians?)

Those were funny; sort of like a kid saying "and to the republic for Richard
Stands"

About cables: I like Canare cable and Switchcraft jacks.

I will probably be taking you up on this in say lots of ten with every other 
order for the next several months -- of course I don't want to jeopardize the 
MOTM stock.

Thanks!
