Hej!
A stringer is a string synth I think. I also wondered what that little machine could be. At the end of "Mine for Life" Billy uses it to change the sound of the SS 30 extremely, so I think it's a filter or a ring modulator.

Hi,

It seems that it was a Yamaha E1010 analog delay. At least that's what it seems. Right year, right manufacturer. :-)

Oh, one thing. I'd like to buy one. :-D
