Helpful, thanks. Got a matte 171, can’t wait.
Apart from the 241 is the 231 worth it? And wasn’t there a second pencil / variation to the 231?
I’m writing a review for 241, came here looking for the years for MSD-300 and MSD-1000. From what I gathered MSD-500 should be from 2001, and MSD-1500 from 2013.
Finally got a 171 in matte black… Beautiful design, just the right weight, size and girth (almost ⌀ 1mm as I think it should be for a pro tool), imho it’s nearly perfect but… makes a few annoying little noises.
Funny thing though if you remove the pushbutton it becomes silent and more compact in feel. This obviously means that it needs a bit of tape somewhere inside No big deal perhaps, but it is irritating that it needs to be tampered with
4.5 for rattling noises/lack of silencer/grip section doesn’t sit tight in a position
Also, I feel no cushion at all when switch is on…
Then it must be the opposite direction? The markings are confusing as heck.
Unless I’m doing something wrong, It’s the same in both positions. Nothing changes.
Okay, strangely now it’s working after I took it apart and put it back together. It’s actually the lead that sponges around not any of the parts.
As you mentioned @drifand the indicator is not very intuitive.
You have rotate the grip left <---- to achieve the marking on the right off | ON like the barrel is facing you. More intuitively you’d rotate the grip to the right to get the position at the right of the marking, but then you’re actually turning it OFF.
In any case it seemed stuck before I removed and put the grip back bc it wasn’t working in either position and now it’s okay.
Looking forward to check the 241 sliding thing, hopefully out of the box… But maybe I’ll wait for a LE since I’m a bit tired of black and silver combos.
