Wow!

It does look good!.....and ...probably.... expensive..

Good to know they can be customised...something like that plus 5/7 insert points would surely be ideal.

Brian and Tetness, is it an all passive sealed switches design?

I sure hope it does. Considering I already purchased one!

Do you think it's possible that Reardon could have put another knob on it somewhere?

Man..! I don't mean any harm, but these people design some " Incredible" looking gear! . This is what I'm talking about, real hardware, not a great looking picture on a box with the "contents" inside!

The final touches are being done to this compressor this weekend. It will be ready for demo next week. I'm not sure who this compressor belongs to. Reardon's giving it to Jeff @ Vintage King. I think it might actually be Jeff's. Roundbadge is first up to hear it. He and I will take a listen and give a review.

The compressor Reardon is building for me will be exactly like the one posted here, except mine will have a few upgrades. After I get it, I'm sending it to Lucey for his expert analysis. After he plays with it for a week, he'll review it as well. I'm sure his review will be more informative.

A bloody damn versatile set up if you ask me. I hope it performs, you could get a lot of mileage out of this puppy - eagerly waiting for the review!

WWWWIIIICKED DUDES!!!

I can't wait to read the reviews, this line of gear is just purely insane looking!!
They HAVE to sound good!!
The look of these units is so inspiring one wouldn't want to stop recording..."yeah that was a good one but do another one just in case, please, I just need to watch these meters dance a bit longer..."
Definitely the look of these B25 Mitchells or B17 cockpit interiors, awesome!
