Dru Blair posted on FB saying that Iwata plans to discontinue production of the CM-SB. The rumor is that Iwata is going to replace it with a different type of brush which still utilized the Micron match head system.

If so I will miss that brush. I bought mine in 1994 and it is still going strong. Of all the Microns I always thought it looked the sharpest. I guess I kind of understand why Iwata is going to cancel that brush. I would guess it’s probably the least purchased of all the Microns. It was really a product of 1980s frisket airbrush and photo retouching marketed toward American illustrators who preferred the side feed brushes while the rest of the world never objected to gravity feed designs. I’m guessing the HP-SB will join it shortly. Off with the Paasche AB and the dodo bird.....
