Binson MF 100 Console - 8 1970s/1980s

Binson is an Italian company founded by Bonfiglio Bini in Milan in the late 1940s.

The company quickly specialized in guitar amplifiers and became famous in the 1950s and 1960s thanks to its “Echorec” delay machine, adopted by iconic artists such as David Gilmour (Pink Floyd) and Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin), becoming a standard until the late 1970s.

In the 1970s and 1980s, Binson expanded its production to include consoles such as the MF 100, an 8-channel analog mixer with built-in reverb, produced in Italy until the company went out of business in the early 1980s (production ceased completely around 1986).

This MF 100-8 model is typical of this period, combining vintage Italian craftsmanship and robust analog components, sought after today by collectors for its aesthetics and unique sound patina.
