Del 4,484 Posted March 17, 2011 I'm trying to figure out the difference between a PAM111 H and and PAM111 J. They both appear to have the same spec but the J is more expensive so I assume it must be better! And, since the letter J comes after H in the alphabet, the PAM111 J must be the most recent model (I'm sharp, aren't I? ). Anyway, comments appreciated. Even if it's just to take the piss . My brain hurts now, I'm off to bed..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drhulee 0 Posted March 17, 2011 Yes, J is newer. Also, J has roller ball CG lever, H doesn't. J case has hexagonal crown tube, H I believe was still round. Other than those differences, there may be a slight difference in placement of "Officine Panera" engraving on bridge, but nothing else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very small enhancements by the sounds of it but probably more desireable nonetheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madcatlancelot 1 Posted March 17, 2011 (edited) If you're talking about the rep PAM111H and the PAM111J that the dealers are selling, I would go with the PAM111J. If you like the quality of the recent PAM 177L, 005K, etc, the PAM111J is almost in the same quality as these guys. Babola has an extensive stripdown review of the pam111J and 177L at rwgjr. http://www.rwgforum.com/topic/127004-revie...__1#entry922311 My side-by-side pict: Old PAM005G, new PAM111J, PAM177L Edited March 17, 2011 by madcatlancelot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
