If you know how to remove components and re-solder them, please don't waste your money. For a little more money and a few hours, you'll get a better sound than the old Neve. Because old Neve have many electrolytic capacitors, if you replace those electrolytic capacitors with tantalum, I assure you the sound will be clearer and more natural. A vintage Neve isn't known for its clean sound, but you do get a warm, clean sound. You've got a beast there.
