I have a Wells B2, came with a used R13 I bought around 1972 in the Chicago area. I played it for awhile, finding it very responsive and even. Teachers pushed me onto other mpc's later, however.
About 15 years ago I revisited the Wells, and loved the sound, but felt it needed refacing as the tip was kind of ragged and tonguing response seemed to be affected. I sent it to a noted Chicago area technician for refacing. When returned, it was absolutely UNPLAYABLE! I was distraught, but during the period it was away, I moved onto a Behn mpc (and now a Greg Smith). Lucky we have so many great choices these days.
I still have the Wells, but unsure what to do with it.
