WTF is this ****? The description says it was built for Rick Wakeman,
does the gold lame cape convey?

Are those TUBES on the multi-track's circuit cards?

This looks like a science project for people that like to hurt
themselves....

I agree with everything you said, but I still want it. That Tindersticks
record sounded absolutely great... too bad the music was annoying.

You spend entirely too much time looking at eBay.

Those are definitely *valves* for sure - lol.

What's puzzling me is who made the tape transport. I can think of one possible UK
outfit who went bust but they were into early solid state driven servo motors, so I
can't imagine then using valves. I guess it might have been a retrofit.

Very *retro* now in fact.

I really really really really want this thing... Really I do. It's
Quad after all! I know it will make a comeback.

Too bad it's in England.

I'm a big sucker for nightmare projects. I think I have more fun
fixing stuff than I do actually using said 'stuff' to record.

So how much would it cost to crate and ship something like this to
Chicago?

Probably 10 to 20 times what it will cost to buy

Eh... there are plenty of 'projects' right here in the states.

Which will likely be 10 to 20 times what it's worth.
