Baught this unit and had it modded. It now has phantom power with an on/off toggle switch mounted on the front and a pad switch also. This unit is an up front, fast and dirty sounding pre.
The eq is sweet especially for kick. I've used it loads for hard kick drum tones, bottom snare and guitars using a 421 and running parallel with a 57 into a Neve 1073. THE CONDITION IS VERY CLEAN AND IS IN FULLY WORKING ORDER. IT HAS JUST SAT IN THE RACK IN OUR VERY CLEAN STUDIO AND ONLY POWERED ON WHEN IN USE.SADLY WE HAVE TO LET IT GO AS WE ARE CLOSING DOWN THE STUDIO.
