Hi everyone, I received already a lot of PM messages, I replied to all.
I will send the items next week, for small stuff that fits and envelope I will cover shipping costs. For bigger stuff I ask you just the amount to cover shipping.

I will update the posts later on because some items are already taken, but I’m away at the moment.

Thank you so much to CurtZHP for being the first one to participate in the giveaway, hope more people join the party

best regards to you all

Hey Whoops, I PMd you last night but didn’t get a reply!

Also, I’ll try to round up some things to offer here in the next few days!
 
how much is shipping on some of those germanium transistors to usa (assuming there is any left with that feeding frenzy that was going on over them).
 
ALL TAKEN

6N2P Russian Preamp Tubes - NOS never used
Operationally they are the same as 12AX7 but with the Filaments in parallel instead of in series, so they're not pin compatible.

If there's interest from many members I will part the lot, if there's only one member interested I give them all to the same person. Will wait 1 week

6N1P Russian Preamp Tubes - NOS never used
Russian-made miniature 9-pin medium gain double triode vacuum tube intended for use as a line audio amplifier and cathode driver.

The 6N1P has similar ratings to the 6DJ8 and in the past was sometimes rebranded as such, however differences between the two types (the 6N1P requires almost twice the filament current and has only one third the S value) mean they are not directly interchangeable

If anyone in the US is still hankering for germanium transistors, I'll send a lot of 5 untested to the first 5 folks who ask. You pay shipping.
 
EDIT 12/8/21 - Most of my items have been sent to new homes. Synth-style pointer knobs still remain.

I've got a few small things to offer. These aren't as exciting as lists of tubes and transistors, but maybe someone will get some joy from them. Everything is in unused, like-new condition. If in the continental USA, I'll gladly cover shipping. Happy holidays to you all!

Taken 2x Neutrik NCJ6FI-S Non-switching Combo Jacks

Taken 2x 4PDT miniature toggle switches

TAKEN:

Thanks for the responses and thanks to the entire community for the willingness to share info so freely. If not for this forum I doubt I would have started my journey into the DIY world!

Or to put it another way: I have convinced my wife that it's all your fault I bought and built all this stuff!!


In the spirit of DIY and the Holidays I've decided to offer up two GAR 2520's I built this year.

They work, nothing wrong with them. I built a bunch and am currently working on a Neve-type project so I don't have a pressing need.

If you can afford to buy DOA's, please support the sellers that support this board.
If you find yourself a little short on funds to finish that project that needs a DOA, here's your chance to pick one up.

Two available, one to each of the two persons that contact me.

All I ask is that you pay shipping.

EV 664 adapter cable: This 4 pin to XLR cable "pigtail" is made from a NOS Amphenol connector and a gold pin Neutrik XLR. Converts the 664 and other mics to standard pinout. $9 shipping

(C) Bogen Input Transformers: Three oddball inputs. Two are 600:10K, the third may be mic to tube grid? Some broken pins :( $9 shipping TAKEN

Not sure if lordraptor1 is a spoof account or not, but he seems to have disappeared. I guess my copper-clad board is still up for grabs.

Would love to try one in my API 312 if available. Happy Holidays
 
Just to let everyone (who cares) know, I haven't had a chance to look at the requests (life gets in the way).

I will this weekend.
