Wow, if this stuff really is the same gear that recorded all those sides, there should be some serious bidding. I mean, wouldn't this be perfect for the Experience museum in Seattle? I think Paul Allen still has some extra cash, despite the current downturn.

Visiting Sun Studios was one of the highlights of a cross-country trip I took a few years ago, but it would have been even cooler if they had period correct gear in the control room and recording room. The whole facility just reeks of history, beyond cool, cannot recommend a visit there highly enough.

Speaking of uber-collectibles,whatever happened to the Beatles' mixing board? I remember there was one on the cover of Mix (first issue?) and it was reported at the time to be owned by somebody in the Bay area. Was this most likely sold to Lenny Kravitz?
