I always thought that the maroon cased Phase Linears were Electrosound stock and there were also a boatload of big PA cabinets covered in the same cloth backed vinyl covering but I could be wrong as my memory is going down the pan a bit nowadays.

TFA Electrosound,now that brings back memories,they made their own cabinets too i believe? HHB was another large hire company. North London if i remember.

PA was fun in those days,all very big,heavy,ground-stacked of course, and quite exotic to anyone moving up a cog from the usual high street disco shops,Squires etc.
Be seeing you.

ROFL

Looks like it's done 20 years in a damp shed.

Should be in the "ebay dreamers" section...

Probably wouldn't look so bad after a good clean, but is well worn. Maybe £20 at the most.

It has the wrong turntables fitted. It's rusty as an old ship. 

The valuable bit is the Gloster sticker and for the whole item I'd pay 20 quid too, but I'd want it delivered.

Yes, should have garrards rather than citronic turntables if I'm not mistaken.

The Rainbow shop on Uxbridge Rd was also started by Mervyn, I worked there during the fit out and it's early days. We moved a lot of the business there from Herbert Gardens. Including the stripper agency which was managed by Jacky. Wow so many memories, I got my DJ start with Rainbow, working on those old mobile desks and box lights.  Bit different these days, but forever greatful for that start
