    Early 60's valve preamplifier model with a very warm & vintage sound

    This is the same as some of our other units listed for sale but just without a few of the upgrades fitted.

    These have been described as the best Bass DI units available. Amazing sounding units when connected direct to guitars

    Perfect for guitar DI use, a very high quality mic pre and to add warmth and colour to all your recordings.

    Classic vintage valve sound and the same input valve as used in the most classic mic pre's like the V72 and EMI consoles
     

     
    Genuine vintage valve preamp, not a modern clone

    Here's what the last buyers had to say

    07/03/15

    "Hi Ian, After some extensive use, I'm really impressed with the Pre.
    Acoustic guitar recorded through a KM84 sounded incredible, no eq required.
    I have API 512c and Neve 1073 pres, yours is by far my preferred bass DI and may have even topped the API for elec guitars. Stunning stuff"
    "I just checked the Pre and I love iT 😄
    I can't believe iT sounds little better than my V 76,s"

    "Hi Ian
    I'm back in Australia.
    I now have my studio set up. Preamps include universal audio, focusrite, vintage rca's. But the first preamp I always go to. Always! Is yours.
    Thank you
    "
