Clair Bros piece of history on eBay

[WOPL Sniffer]

Have not decided what to do with them Ron. I know I will keep 4-6 for personal builds but the rest?????? I'd like to do some builds but I don't know if there will be any interest. CLAIR WOPL'S???? Cool in my book. Sabbath and others used these.

These must be the ones from Honolulu? Man - that is an ass ton of nice amps. When you get them it will be interesting to see some nudes. Oh yeah - a few photos of the amps would be nice too.

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

Si...... they are being packed up right now. Cool eh?

No kidding - way cool. I like the looks of the Series II amps and from the photos the amps in the racks look they've been taken care of. I have a 400 Series II and it looks good adjacent to one of the early 400's. You're going to be quite busy.

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

Yeah I'm psyched..... I have a couple builds going on right now for a customer so these will go on the back burner.

I got a great sense of humor. I didn't hear a joke. When you said you're kidding, I didn't know it was meant as funny. Pretty simple.

OK, fine then.

Do they all have to come from Hawaii?? That's a bunch of amps man...

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

Yeah, all from Hawaii, I had to go that far for units because there aren't many around. None on eBay, too expensive on CL....

 

[laatsch55]

Amen to that...

 

[laatsch55]

I had a shot at those a year ago, I thought at the time they were a bit pricey. Glad you wound up with em...

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

They were a little pricey but what can ya do? I have no doubt I'll get what I paid back out of them. Hell, we can't get meters for the 700b's so I'll go Cylon. Same amp, same WOPL, Just no snazzy meters. I don't sit and stare at it anyway.

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

He had 8 racks of 4 but somebody bought half so I got the last 4 racks

 

[laatsch55]

Yep, the LED's can be fixed..

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

Lee, I'm shopping for a signal generator and I was looking for a WaveTek, any suggestion without killing the wallet? I'd be using it for troubleshooting or spacing out an amp.

That would be SPEC'ING

 

[laatsch55]

Joe's your man for that question, or Navo, or Jer.. The only two I have ever owned are an Eico 377 and the AP....

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

I like the older WaveTek stuff. We had it in the navy.... fairly bulletproof. The old ones with the dials (134, 143, etc...)

 

[laatsch55]

I think my old tube type Eico is almost as old as I am...

I have a half rack 2U HP function generator (or three) and a full rack 3U one (or three) if you have any interest in them. The specs are good on these guys and I'll dig them out. Maybe barter material - could work out well for both sides. Shoot me a PM if interested. These guys are rock solid and have a user friendly front end interface.
