Gates Sta-level!

astronmr20 · 6th June 2005

Hi Everyone,

First post here.

I did not see a "vintage gear" area, so I thought it best to post my question in high-end.

I was fortunate to come across an old Gates Sta-level compressor. I've found most of the new old stock parts I need, with a few being replaced with just "new." (6l6 tubes, etc.)

I am having trouble finding an input transformer, though That's really all I need to complete this baby.

Anyone use a sta-level before? Anyone know where I could find such an input transformer?

I can't wait to hear this thing.

Steve

Unless you want to venture into the "vintage" transformer market, a Jensen JT-11 will do the trick.
