I play on a JP Sterling 373 and rate it as excellent. It is true, however, that to make it playable I had to cut the tube legs of all the pistons ducts including the main one. The JP 273 is a cheaper version and could be an option, but it may need an intervention like the one I did, easily done even with the DIY.
