** NOTE ** There is a couple of pictures of the pre-amp WITH the power amp, this auction is for the Pre-Amp only. 

Absolutely amazing condition. I amthe second owner and hate to part with it, but financial circumstances areforcing my hand.

I have the box and packing,instructions, power cord, and the 2 button footswitch for the preamp. This has been used with a Mesa Boogie 20/20 Dynawatt power amp (see my other auctions) on the album I am currently mixing and it sounded incredibly aggressive! 

 I would prefer to keep it inCanada as shipping is a bit high when you go to the USA, but I am willing towork with the buyer ont heir choice of couriers etc etc. I am not a store,please understand I have to work during the day and can't answer emails ormessages sometimes until after work.

I have used a lot of gear in thestudio, and always lean on the real amps for recording over the digitalequipment. Digital is great, don't get me wrong, but something about playingwith the knobs, finding your tone the old way, and then capturing sound withmics and moving air... yes please.

Thanks forlooking.
