@paulj0557 Awesome! I doubt they would ship to Uk though...or if they did - it would prob cost a fortune. Cheers for the heads up

@CoolDudeClem, The Side Man seems more Korg than Roland imho - search MiniPops...

It looks like a washing machine and it sounds like a washing machine, but it's not- it's a drum machine! Still calling them drum 'machines' after all these years. I just removed the 3 beat drum circuit board from an old Thomas Californian 250 organ. I have a Cal263 that has a very elaborate circuit complete with all transistor drum sounds, but a big old white and gold multi-pin rom chip for beats. I play the 263- love it! The 3 beat board from the 250 will be fun to play with- a lot of trimmers.
