Title: Meazzi Golden Sound PA from 60's ?
Post by: Daniel Mauric on July 08, 2014, 06:33:07 AM
A friend of mine has inherited this old 60's Italian PA, and would like to sell it.
Does anyone know anything more about it, and the worth of it ?
So it's a mixer with real tape delay and two 4x12 boxes with alnico speakers.

I am not sure which forum is appropriate so posted here, hope that's ok.

With the box's overall condition being what it is, including the layers of rust, I would think Ebay, sold as is, starting price $1 and he pays the shipping.

Also, Meazzi was much more well known for their echo units. They were also distributed by Selmer in the UK, so few made their way to the USA. See some history at the link below. As compared to an Echoplex or any good US unit they're nothing special, and more than a bit overly complex for it's day and age.
