Burson Conductor 3X GT, Burson Soloist 3X GT, Burson Super Charger 5A

I bought a used HA-160D in September 2021.
Thought it was so good that I bought a new Conductor 3 Reference in December 2021.
Here I have to thank Ryan at Burson for very good support.

Then bought in May 2022 Conductor 3X Grand Tourer during your launch campaign.
Have now had it for a month and am very satisfied.
Gotta thank Ryan at your place again for good help and support.
