[BC] Gates Studioette Console...

[Rick Brashear]

While on the subject, does anyone have a handful of the top hat push on
knobs for the switches on the Studioette?  I'm missing one or two and a few
are stuck on with paper inside.  It's the same know as used on my old
Telecaster guitar, but I need some cream colored ones instead of black.

That board also had a ten watt ultralinear power amp with a pretty good
sized
transformer.

Plus, the entire cabinet was steel....

Burt, as I recall, most of the weight is the built-in power transformer :-))

Nice simple board.  Converted one to AM/AM stereo in 1957.
