Spicy allright

Half that price might be considered reasonable in that condition.

I dunno, +/- half is what you'd probably pay assembling that pile (take years), that pile as a one stop is probably going to sell for that to someone.  There ain't that much of that stuff out there in the first place, it was not common like Collins/Gates/Altec/RCA/WE.

I see your point Doug.  I worked for a guy who was a bit obsessed with early UA stuff so I saw a good bit of it.  He was always looking for a deal but also had more dollars than sense so it may have skewed my perspective.  You are correct that the right buyer will pay dearly for a collection of that size.  I just don't personally think it is worth it, but I'm not in the market either.

I wonder where it came from. No mention of its pedigree.

I have always liked the design of this EQ. Neat the way there are two cut and three boost settings meaning you can use a regular 6 way switch.
