The Hobbies/Mamod SE4 steam engines are extremely rare
They where only made for four years (1936-1940)
With a estimated production run of around 1500
And they where hand made by Geoffrey Malins himself (The founder of Mamod)
And of course they are extremely charasmatic and powerfull engines

Is there anyway of regulating the steam output to the piston? i would like to control the piston speed (musical experiment)

Not really with this model, you could open and close the whistle which would alter the steam presure
You would be better useing a Mamod SE2 or SE3 which had a steam regulator
