Shure VA-302-C Vocal Master Control Console 6-Channel PA Head with Reverb and XLR - Vintage Late-70s

For sale is a vintage Shure Vocalmaster PA Head with the highly desirable XLR inputs. This can be used as a mixer or 100 watt powered PA head, though I only ever used this for recording. It has a very cool spring reverb so I used this as a preamp/effects processor to mess up vocal and drum sounds. This thing is absolutely a sleeper piece that will continue to increase in value as people discover them.

I haven't used this in nearly 1.5 years, and the last time I did only 3 of the 6 preamps were fully functioning. As such, this is sold as-is.

From Shure:

Designed specifically for the performing vocalist, the Vocal Master Sound System provides the required portability, flexibility, and dependability demanded by professional entertainers. The mixer/power amplifier Control Console permits the user to mix up to six microphones with individual control over volume, tone and reverberation. A solid-state 100 watt R.M.S. power amplifier is incorporated in the Console. Unique circuitry design protects the solid-state components against damage as a possible result of open-circuit or short-circuit conditions of the amplifier outputs. The output transistors are also protected against overheating by the use of automatic thermal sensors. All components of the Vocal Master Sound System are conservatively rated and are operated well within their respective tolerances to assure long life and trouble-free performance.
