I don't think it comes with a wipe-clean cover so be sure to budget in extra. 

Gassage

Have a LOL!

Actually, that seemingly cost £60k to build...be interesting to see how much it goes for.

impmann

Pity some of it is missing... for example, the correct floor controller is missing, as are the rack processors and effects units used in the send/returns. Plus all the radio gear has been stripped out, except for the antenna outlets top left and right.

I don't think they really know what they are selling. IIRC this was sold off in the auction at the Farm a while back.

I'll put by Rutherford anorak away, now...

Gassage

The absolute jewel in that lot is the rack mount Cornish routing system.

If I'd the spare cash, I'd bid up to 5k for that alone.

Heartfeltdawn

If I had the spare cash, I'd bid for it too. I'd then film myself smashing the shit out of it in some artpunk statement of intent a la the KLF burning their cash.

Jesus that's a complex rig. I don't even know what any of that is.

Gimme 2 amps, a stereo chorus, stereo delay and a tubescreamer and I'm pretty much happy.

Gassage

....and Rutherford is a bass player!

The Rack of Genesis.  Possibly my favourite ever Start Trek movie.

I think this is historically important for being the only article in the universe less Rock n Roll than James Blunt's slippers......
Or Jeremy Clarkson's Jeans.

Gassage

Hehehehe- Can you imagine taking that down to the Flapper and Firkin?

"Yes, of course it's Rutherford's, don't ya know?"

"Ahhhh so he used it at Wembley and the Enormodome, right...."

"Errrr...."

Heartfeltdawn

Or the average punter's reaction: who the fuck is Mike Rutherford?

paulk

I wouldn't even know where to start with that.

I know Cornish fanboys bang on about how "Pete was trained by the MoD... blah blah..." but the world has moved on since the 70s. That new Axe Fx floor unit puts this monster dinosaur rig into perspective.

That would explain why the average punter doesn't know who the fuck Mike Rutherford is.

Sold at £850, someone has got a bargain there I think if they can salvage the good stuff from it and sell it on.

Hi there, I know this is an old message, but I'm looking for the current owner of this rack. Can you please contact me at resetpreset@telenet.be? Thanks!
