Really? Then I'm lucky! I have a Fidelity Designer Mach III Master, Model 6113,
and it is in *Mint* condition, pieces manual, the box it came in, although, it's
flimsy and so the box is worn, and the box it was shipped in, packing, the
works.

Also, it was made in the winter of 1989, before Hegner&Glasser, (Mephisto)
bought Fidelity out in the summer of 1989. So it's a genuine Fidelity made in
Miami Florida.

However, it would be nearly impossible to get one in this condition, and would
hate to part with it.
