So, I've had the opportunity to test out one of the new Neotat models - the Vivace. I just got the 'go-ahead' to start yapping about it and I
Love Love Love It!

Weight - lighter (yes lighter) than the 'standard' neotat machines.
Stroke - long
Uses - EVERYTHING!

I line with it at 11v. I shade with it at 9v. I color with it at 8v. 3r liners- no problem. 9r liners- no problem. 7mags - no problem. 25mags - no problem.

Should you get this machine if given the opportunity?
YES!

So much awesome in such a little package. Today, it has pole position in my top drawer. It may eventually end up in second or third place if Ray ever makes a deep turquoise green, or olive green machine....
