They never gave us grief at he bench, came out lookin good
& never came back. What else could one ask for ?

I don't remember if it was MGA or MCA, but one professor I took last year had bought a hybrid set new form one of those brands and put an obscene number of hours on it (like leaving it on all night every day 365) for decades, and a year or two before telling me of it gave it away, still working fine, to a neighbor. There is a part of me that really wants one after hearing that. You wouldn't by chance be familiar with any hybrid chassis under one of those brands would you?

Dont recall a hybrid MGA & dont remember a MCA brand.
Out of the Jap hybrids JVC, Panasonics & Toshibas seemed to be
the best, the others just didnt make the cut.
