Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:26186427 | UPC: DoesNotApply |
| MPN: 605A | Brand: Hickok |
This tube is fresh out of storage, where it sat for a number of years. The cabinet is in very good condition with minimal wear. It's still a little dirty as we haven't cleaned it up at all, but should look great with a little detail work! It works well. We've tested a 6SN7 that's known to be good, however we don't have another 605A to compare test results with. We recommend having it calibrated as it's likely a little off. You may also want to replace some of those components, as every...thing is original inside.
Please realize that this is a vintage piece of equipment, and unless specifically noted above, it has not been fully restored with new components. It will inevitably need maintenance, however it's impossible to know whether that will be next week or a few years down the road. Unless you are capable of doing this work yourself (or have access to someone who can), we suggest you revisit the idea of whether this is the right equipment for you.
This item will be packaged using our InstaPak foam-in-bag system, ensuring the utmost protection! Bags filled with a chemical mixture expand around your item and harden to form a protective, yet forgiving, foam barrier. We've been using this system for over two years to ship some the heaviest and most delicate equipment you can imagine, and have yet to had an item damaged!
IMPORTANT: You will only receive what is photographed. If it is not shown in the photos, it is not included in the sale. This includes items such as original packaging, accessories, manuals, and so on. Speaking of manuals, it is strongly recommended that you thoroughly read it before attempting to operate the equipment. If a manual is not included in this sale, you should download one. Lastly, if you have any questions regarding the item being sold, please feel free to ask. We're here to help!
