Looks like the MR is the one...interchangable leadpipes...scratch gold...polished on the receiver, top half of valve section, caps/buttons, finger rings/hook, and inside bell. I must say...Noel sure knows his stuff...and Leigh is amazing to work with. We'll see what happens in about 8 weeks time. Just in time for that wedding gig, too...how awesome. I think the scratch gold will be gorgeous..and I won't wear through it near as quick as lacquer(I still hate having such acidic hands...) BTW, what's the best maintenance/care for a scratch gold finish? I know polished is just wipe with a lint-free cloth, I believe...
