What do you get the man who has everything? A fancy numbered nameplate to affix to his vintage board.

Just spent the entire evening ripping apart my studio, will post new pics when it's done.

Meantime, here's what it looked like at 4 this afternoon...

Here's my desk, I need some more furniture/racks obviously. This desk sucks, it's bulky but isn't wide enough for my speakers. So, I need some speaker stands. And I don't have enough inputs on my 002R for my gear, so I need an AD/DA converter (probably a Tango24). But, it's very useable.

PS: Does anyone know where I can get a knob for my 160X? The threshold one is missing.

i just got the double-wide version of that desk and the rack ears are all crooked cos the screws for the rails on either side of the centre bump into each other thru the thin particle board.

time for me to drill some new holes, i suppose!

nice pres!

Here's me at my new Elite - it took Mike Stoica almost 10 months to build it

I like it. It's solidly built and has a nice feel and tone. Not as thick as a Les Paul, still kinda chunky though.



I have that same desk, and am trying to work it in to the new studio setup. It's a pain, because the dimensions are all wonky. But I want some desk space, and I'm hoping I can make it work.
