Re: “Professor Plum” The 1970 4001 21 Fretter

He certainly hasn't been around here in a long time that I recall.

I wonder if Woody has been in contact with Sergio; Woody and his partner moved to Portugal a couple years ago.

I see that his last post was on 01/17/20.

Re: Registry update question

That means that someone "rummaged" through websites and/or stores collecting data to add instruments to the register. I always thought (previous to learning this) that the owners of these instruments could add them to the register.

It's interesting, I had a '92 FG V63 years ago that also came from Japan.

Wonder what's the deal with FG V's and Japan?
In Japan FG = Fire-breathing Godzilla

Re: Any More News on the return of the 4005?

Any particular reason? Probably, the financier's decision. :wink: :mrgreen: I originally ordered MG, then JG and finally settled on FG.
