Thanks all, appreciate the support here.

It has been a lucky dozen days or so. Scored a great Mini with 2 bf atty's and extras in the classies, got a LP Grand, spare parts/supplies from Rob, scored a Vicious Ant Cyclone in the classies, a VVG with another bf atty and extras as well, have two spare doors coming from Rob, and now scored a Woodvil in the classies after missing two of them a few days ago. So it's been a perfect win for me, hopefully for the sellers. I wanted a mini, grand, vvg and woodvil for starters to see if I prefer some models over others. A clue though... I love all three I already have in had. So only the Woodvil is an unknow to me at the moment. I know Rob wants the VV's gone... this one is mint and interesting so hope it outlives me... sorry Rob ;). Been spending a lot of time with the VVG since I picked it up last night, am using a high for me ohm coil (2.2) in it and loving one of my favorite jooses in it. More bf atty's is next, and some day down the road a lot of unused gear (a large stash that became larger thanks to these Reo's) will be put in the classies.

I saw that score in the classies too, smooth! Congrats :)

BTW, that's one of the original VV's, the small recessed button is the giveaway.

Thanks for the info on vintage. Too new at Reo's to know the difference between vintages yet, and know less about the differnt Woodvil models/vintages than the rest. The VVG is mint, doesn't look like it's even been used. And the well used brass Reomizer that came with it is different than the one I got with the Mini, yet I think they called them both RM2's. Vintage I assumed, but this one has a brass and SS base where the other one is all brass.

All the RM2's are brass underneath the silver, lots of folks just strip the silver off to get the brass look. If the insides of the two look the same, then they're both RM2's.

My knowledge of "vintage" is limited, Nerak (Karen) is the resident REO "historian" and can give you all sorts of details.
