these?

Hi folks.. Hustle time!

If any of you good people are  interested, (and you're more likely to be 
than most) I'm selling off some bits  from my collection of sonic wardrobes..
Currently there's a 1961/2 ish Bird  organ on ebay, a lovely device in need 
of some TLC. They're all-valve,  everything from power supply, master 
oscillators, buffering, reverb driver and  recovery, EL34 power amp.. Same 
Herrburger-Brooks keyboards as early Voxes and  they look a bit like MkIIs.. some 
recapping needed but nothing too hectic. I  need space and cash so I'm 
trying to get down to just the remaining 'sacred  cows'.. while I still have 
some. And I'd like to spend some money on my  motorcycle, which is nearly ready 
for the road again 14 years after destroying  a FIAT X1/9 and getting more 
than a little squashed herself..

I'm  throwing in another one for spares and can provide copies of the 
techie  manual..

If you're at all interested search 'vintage valve Bird' on eb  ay..

I also have some others that might yet get auctioned off. Yes  folks, I own 
5 of the things in various shapes..

Love and  Scones
