AT 853 mods + 3 wire battery box...
« on: September 04, 2006, 06:12:08 PM »
I've got a pair of standard AT 853s (non phantom) that terminate into a single 1/8" miniplug.

Who would be willing and able to modify these to work with the oft-mentioned 3 wire battery box? Who around here builds these boxes?

Any info would be much appreciated...

(I'm too lazy to use the )

Sanjay and I are out of the game (for now) I think...

Great to hear Chris will hook you up though...

I can vouch for Fozzy's box if he's still building them.  Really great little thing.
