They look old school - and there's nothing really wrong with that. According to the Shindo U.S. importer both Shindo and Line Magnetic are based on the original designs from Western Electric. Both using better newer parts parts I should imagine.They look military style to me as if it would be in the cockpit of a B-52.
The Melody AN 211 looks absolutely stunning and has been well reviewed - but there is something to LM I can't quite put my finger on - perhaps a slight grab you by the scruff of the neck and drag you into the music - a little less finesse and smoothness of the finer tube designs but a little more bubbly and entertaining and ballsy - which isn't such a bad thing.
The 211 may cater to classical more while the 219 will let you rattle the walls with Slipknott.
I mean check out this monstrosity - I have never seen anything quite like it - it looks like it should be in Frankenstein's lab. The nice thing is that it has wheels.
