Okay, I'll admit....I've OD'd on pre's, proc's, and rackmount stuff in general. Something has got to go!
Up for grabs is my recently acquired SVP-CL (CL as in clean!) preamp. Its in good cosmetic condition (rack scratchs on top / bottom and missing two lid screws) and good working condition with the following exception:
The rear-mounted mute switch jack has a corrupted contact which, when up to temp, will kick the unit into "mute" mode if left vacant.
This is a common fault as I've learned from fellow TBer's. Here are 3 ways to circumvent the problem:
1) Insert a shorted 1/4" plug.
2) Insert an instrument cable and latching foot pedal (my favorite and functional).
3) Insert an earplug. Not sure how / if it works but the contributor swears it does!
I've looked into having it repaired but given to / fro shipping, bench fees, and the possibility of damage in transit, I've decided just to live with it as many other owners have.
How's $380 shipped sound? For those of you familar with my MO, the argyle socks are required for quality photography and not included in the deal. I make every attempt to include them much as Playboy discretely posts the "bunny" logo on each and every cover.
Thanks for looking!
