I want my plain old beep back!

As you know, System 6.0 incorporates some new features sound-wise.  We
get to choose between a monkey, boing, clink-klank, and what they call
a "simple" beep sound for our system beep.

In a nutshell, these don't sound all that hot on my Mac Plus.  They
sound great on the office Mac II, marginal on a Mac SE (but only because the
speaker's in front), but mostly bad on my Plus at home.

How can I get back the plain old unadorned beep?  I want the system beep to 
sound just like a Mac Plus's startup beep, like it used to.  But I still
want to use System 6.0.  Is it possible?

Please respond via mail.
