The original Iconic is described here:
ICONIC
Funny - I just set up my turntable a couple of days ago, after being packed away for almost two years. Now where's that copy of "Chester and Lester"...

What a guy, RIP LP.
Back when Bill revived the 417, I wanted one but he only had a handful of prototypes built, and wanted to send those to select pickers for review. LP was on his list. Wonder if he got to try it?
