Jack,

News to me!

>Of the 15000 Z boxes sold I encounted an unusual one today and wonder if
>anyone else has one. This instrument is dated 1972 almost if not the end
>of the run. The keyboard is plastic covered but has short harpsichord
>like keyheads and long black sharp risers. Not the clunky Pratt-read
>variety. Also the jack rail in smaller, narrower without the sponge
>rubber and most unusual has brass brackets slotted fot two screws and
>having a single round post penetrating a hole in the jack rail itself.
>Perhaps these parts were from english kits.
>  Everything else looks and sounds the same. Has anyone else seen these
>alternates of the original kit.
>I spoke with the builder who swears the parts are all original to the
>kit.  Jack Peters  ??????
