generally that is the accepted school of thought,that Mephistos are more
reliable then other brands

however for me it turned out quite the opposite

i have a Mephisto ESB II board and an ESB 6000 Board
both massive wooden boards
i think these boards could survive a direct nuclear attack and survive entact
yet both of mine are both dead as doorknobs

while on the other hand i rarely have trouble with any of my Fidelities.
it is true that many of the auto -sensory Fidelities wind up with dead reed
switches after awhile,but these are generally easy to fix

Best
Steve
