So my friend calls to tell me that a gentleman with an early 1970's era studio wants to give away all of his gear. The basement it was in had some water damage. He wanted all of it out ASAP as contractors were coming in to repair the house.
I got so lucky. There was a stereo Urei LA-3A there and I said "Do you really just want to give this away? Do you know what this would go for?" and he said "Yes, just take it and use it." In disbelief I said thank you as he pulled out a spring reverb that I have never heard of, a Multi-Track Dual Equalized Reverb.
Wow. Then he said we had to take the console.
It's an Allen & Heath. The serial number is 029. There are no identifying model numbers at all on it. It's modular, 16 X 8.
Does anyone know what this is? Is it worth restoration? The external power supply is totally rusted. Looks like it was submerged. So I will need to rebuild a PSU for it at the least.
