Wanted Don Classics U76 kit or module

[soldersod]

Anybody have any kits or completed modules of this compressor? They seem somewhat rare now. Thanks for any help!

Is David not selling them anymore?

Dave is a good friend and he is busy with other ventures and lives in Spain now.

I do not think we will see Dave on the forum again. I'm considering taking on his kits, but it would be in a different format. I would do complete kits, and they would be on pre-order, and a batch would be fulfilled in one hit. That said, I am a full-time mix engineer with a young family, so I would not be able to offer much in direct build support, I just want to help Dave clear his stock and offer these great builds to the group. I know some vendors are very good with support and others are completely unsupported.

Where should I post about getting interested in a group buy on this? I could probably do a Blue and Black face 76 in one lot. Great to hear if there is some interest. If there is genuine interest from enough people I'll look at pricing a full kit.

I'd be very interested in a complete kit.

I have a Blue face 76 and would love to have another for stereo but dont have much time (new family) find source the parts.

I would be interested in the blueface in a complete kit as well. Thank you.

Just to update, I’m meeting up with Dave at the end the month. Going to get everything off him then. Will update as soon as I have everything to hand.

That’s great news! I’ve been randomly trying to buy a couple of the 250 EQ and NV73 kits for the past couple of years. Aside from their great reputation, I like that they’re 51X compatible.

Wanting a pair of 250 EQ kits here too

Does it do the 4 button in trick?

Yes, it does this is in every detail an extremely authentic clone.

 

[soldersod]

I’m interested as well of course! When you mentioned blackface in your first post do you mean another revision in 500 that Dave never offered?

Yes, just checked the list I have. Might be able do some REV D kits in the new year. Would need to make up PCB and front panel, but there is 35 metalwork hardware that Dave got made up.
