black F-100 E with active preamp versus the aged natural F-100-2

Dealers had some trouble distinguishing between examples like our black F-100 E with active preamp versus the aged natural F-100 which was passive only (no preamp).

Occasionally I might get confused and have to check the old instruction sheet, which you might notice takes a bit of effort to process. That said, there is an impressive range of cool tones to be dialed in.
