For sale is an incredibly rare vintage Gates Gatesway Tube console model number M-5133 in Altec Green finish.

It looks like a time capsule, beautiful on the outside and inside, with hardly any signs of wear for its age.

It has been fully serviced and is fully functional. The internal electronics are exceptionally clean. Includes breakout connector cabling and power supply and manual (instruction book). This console sounds amazing and if you are looking for something entirely unique in your studio to get some vintage tone, this is it.
