Why would a Mct be better? That looks like a cracker of a board.

Yes, it's a cracker of a board... But I think McTavish put more time and effort into R&D, and replication of what works.

DVS is lower volume, and potentially more collectable, but potentially slightly more hit & miss.

The DVS All Rounder Model comes with really little side biters I think... And When they are that small, I wonder what the point of them is? But I can answer my own question... they give you a little bit of bite, whilst remaining a fairly true "single".

I love singles, I love 1+2's, I love boards, I love broads, I love tints....
