I have this one acquired so far , ( described by seller as N/S ) & there's an exact same one on eBay at the mo and the seller says they are not handed

I'm getting rid of the stacked twins on mine at the mo. I have no back panels yet or bezels so wondering what to look for or avoid. I want early type

The stack is just yucky Neil. I'm a big fan of Luke's so early square is the way for me to go at the moment.
