Sadowsky Preamp with knobs and bell plate. - *SOLD* £60 Lowestoft

[carlsim]

Sadowsky Preamp with knobs and bell plate for sale. Taken out of my metro express as I wanted to upgrade to the VTC (the only real difference I believe).

 

I had some issues with this recently, drop outs and the such, which I managed to trace back to some loose connections on the end pot (bass or treble - can't remember which!) The white cover over the pins was holding it in place (why it was intermittent) and no amount of solder reflowing seemed to cure the problem. So I trimmed the cables back and soldered onto the pot some new micro pins and rejoined the cables - I have tried to show the joins in the pics. I did this a couple of weeks ago and it has been fine since. I plugged it in again today to check and it was fine and dandy. I back ordered the VTC drop in kit a while back and it arrived today so this is up for grabs.

I am selling this as it is but would of course accept returns if there are problems when installed. it isn't a professional solder job but it's solid and should be fine for the next owner. All pins and joins were covered in heat shrink as you will see by the pictures. No issues with noise in this one as it was one of the later metro express models. I have shielded the rear of the bell plate as I like doing it and tend to fiddle around with things. You could even buy the VTC kit to add to this which replaces the bass and treble pot with the passive tone and stacked T&B.

Includes the Sadowsky style knobs, bell plate and jack socket. You can literally drop this in, solder in your pups and away you go. The new drop in kit took me 15 mins to install.

 

£60 plus postage - a fiver will cover it insured.
