Hi all,
does anyone know about this model of Eminent?
Do you know of differences and similarities with the original one?
I have seen one for sale in a shop and at the beginning it seemed to me the 310U, than I looked on the left and noticed the first differences.
Eminent experts I am waiting for your comments!

Like Radek says - seems to be 310U without String Ensemble.

I remember a model similar to the 310 called the 300 (I think). It was the same but without the string ensemble.

Yes you're right. No solina.
This Emi 500 has more solo registers + 2 knobs added

Thank you all,
So it is definitely not worth as the 310U, whose strings I love more than the later Solina's.
What a pity, it was very clean and for sure I could pick it up for little money.
For who lives in the Netherlands it seems quite easy to find a 310U fairly cheap; here it's quite rare and someone asks up to 1500 EUR (

They are getting rarer here too. I'm still looking for a regular model - as I don't want the Theatre one.
