w/Ampex
620 amplifier speaker This is the first "professional" recorder martin used to record University recitals, band & choir concerts; musicals and was taken on tour from 1964 to 1968. We thought it interesting that this Ampex 600 and 620 were acquired from a seller located on Sunset 3 blocks from its intersection with Vine in Hollywood (this is the area where Jack Mullin taped the first Bing Crosby radio shows). We contacted Ampex, however, they would not release the identity of the original owner based on the serial number. |
