Hey DJC, good to hear from you. Our tech guru in Belgium is MJMP or Philippe. @ MJMP did you ever got that MP-1 to work properly??
Systematic Chaos (SC) has been doing some complete refurbing (http://adadepot.com/index.php?topic=2837.0) and found some interesting issues along the way.
ADA/TM seem to have disappeared (again
). The closest we got to a resurrected MP-1 was the MP-1 Channel they were making as a pedal. If you have the time and soldering skills, it seems the best approach is what SC has done and change lots of components for new/better ones, I think he basically replaced everything in the analogue audio chain. Check out his posts.
How's the guitar building going? Last we chatted you were building up the business, getting decent wood supplies etc.
Cheers Richard
