Hi All,
        I thought I would share some stuff I found/figured out over the last few weeks:
 
      1.)    MXL 603s have 3-- thats right THREE different bodys !!!  ( Dont worry....all the threads are the same)

              One is the original body style with the three tiny little screws that secure the body tube to the connector base
              I found a second style - the " MXL 603 Mogami " - and the Body tube on THIS one is BRASS and THREADS on to the connector base... MUCH BETTER!
              And yet a third style that is like the second but it does not say "Mogami" and the label or badge is PRINTED on the body tube not embosed or engraved like the first two.  ::)

   
      2.)  I just finished a Gyraf G9, my first lage project and it KICKS ASS !!!  - Thanks Jacob -  anyway, I had these PCB mount screw connectors hanging around, and had an Idea.... the perf board I had was the right spacing and the connector fit, and it also fit inside the body tube, I just hot glued it to the perf board ..making a socket for the tube, I used a 5703wb tube and copied the C60, but with the pin combining of the 5840 in this and Royers circuit it makes for a nice tiddy Mod without having to fly the leads over, under and around, you just run the wire from the connector to the terminal pins.  - sweet right?    ;)

  Here is a link to show the differences, I left the one w/ the printed label out because other than that, its  no different than the brass threaded one

Hello all,

Many years later and this looks precisely like what I'm looking for. Are these still in production? I'd like to order two, if so.

Best,
Matthew
