Isn't  this the same one that went on auction earlier this year?

Is it the same M300 that recently sold on eBay? The description is similar.

Hi Mark-
  They're not loops, but are the station position (cueing) tapes, one per keyboard division.  They are on the far end of each tape take-up reel.  Yes, it is a split keyboard.
