    My first rig was a couple of Garrard decks and a very basic mixer.

    With 46 years as a dj behind me I have seen soooo many changes.

    I started with a pair of Garrard turntables from record players that I built plinths o for fed into a transistor Eagle 4 ch mixer as was the mic and then to a 30w valve amp with EL34 push pull valve line up, if my memory serves me right. Speakers were a pair of Bakers Selhurst 12".

    No lights for first gig Aug 3rd 1968.
