    Description

    Custom Build (30 days):
    Hairball 1176 Rev D with Orange Drop Mod - Brand New 2021
    . Built at Process Haus, an authorized builder for Hairball gear.
    When you order this item I will order the parts and build for you.  Will ship within 30 days, but most likely much sooner.  It takes me a couple days to build and then a couple days to burn in and final test for QA, once the parts are received. I put 30 days to build in time for the factory to ship the parts and UPS to deliver.... but usually I receive them in 7 - 10 days, upon receipt of your order.
    The 1176 Rev D with Orange Drop mod has a hybrid tone of a Rev D blackface and a Rev A blue stipe. It has the general tone of a Rev D with some of the bite and grit of a Rev A... but with the lower noise of the Rev D. Its almost the best of both types. I personally like it when you would want to use a Rev A on a snare or vocal that is louder in the mix, but don't want the overall noise the Rev A adds when the snare or vocal is at a higher level in the mix.
    This unit does not include stereo link module, but I have those in stock usually. If you want that added please purchase it from my other listing and I will install for free.

    This revision covers the REV B thru E units. Most current reissues are based on this revision. Revisions C-E had a black front panel while the Rev B retained the silver and blue stripe panel. Changes were made to the stage and line amps so a bipolar transistor was used as the first active component. Low noise, or “LN” circuitry, was added to this and all future revisions. Like the Revision A, the input uses an O-12 transformer and the signal is attenuated at the input with a 600Ω T-pad. The output is class A, utilizing a 5002 output transformer. This is widely considered to be the most classic FET compressor sound.
