GTR Lab ER4/E power attenuator, one unit, in excellent physical condition and tested and working.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Excellent and rare professional power attenuator from GTR Lab, model ER4 (with advanced Varislope Power Control circuitry and components). Entirely designed and built in Italy, this device is an essential element for guitarists who demand maximum from their tube amplifiers without compromising neighbor relations or hearing health.

The GTR Lab allows you to push the output tubes of your amplifier (head or combo) to the ideal saturation point (the so-called "sweet spot"), achieving that warm sound, rich in harmonics and naturally compressed that only fully driven tubes can offer, while reducing the actual output volume to apartment- or studio-level levels.

Main Technical Features:
- Varislope Power Control: An exclusive technology that corrects the EQ curve as the signal attenuates, avoiding the loss of high and low frequencies typical of cheap attenuators.
- Function Selector (Left): Allows you to disable the effect (OFF), set maximum attenuation (MAX), minimum attenuation (MIN), or switch to custom mode (MID).
- Fine Adj Control (Right): Active in the "MID" position, enables precise and continuous volume adjustment to find the perfect acoustic balance in the room.
- Construction: Sturdy metal chassis with a perforated top grille for excellent passive heat dissipation.

GTR Lab attenuation products and systems are a gem of "Made in Italy" cherished by many professionals and session players in major Italian and European recording studios. Devices of this caliber and with this dynamic management philosophy (the Varislope dynamic slope control) are inspired by the great historical standards used in major mastering studios and by rock legends (such as the historic attenuation and filtering systems used by guitarists like Tom Scholz of Boston or in stadium-grade setups by Pink Floyd) to keep the sustain intact even at manageable stage volumes.

Seller's Story

Welcome to our Catawiki store. Our journey in online sales began back in 2004, driven by a clear vision: creating online auctions dedicated to high-value objects. Today, more than twenty years later, we carry forward that exact same vision. We are proud to have remained a small, family-run business, yet operating with the solidity and scale of major industry professionals: each year, we welcome more than 100 new clients, purchase over 150 lots, and select between 3,000 and 5,000 unique items to offer you. Our commitment is reflected in everything we do, from the initial find to the final delivery to your doorstep: • A Purchase with Social Value: Buying from us means securing a great deal while actively supporting the future of young Italian students. We collaborate closely with 3 graphic design and advertising schools in Milan, Bergamo, and Lecco. We invest our time and expertise to teach these students the secrets of online sales, professional photography, and marketing. By choosing us, you are tangibly contributing to their education and career paths. • Field Research and Discovery: For years, we have been personally scouting the most remote locations across Lombardy to find unique pieces, rarities, oddities, and mid-century modern design. • We Invest Our Own Capital: We do not sell on consignment. We invest our own capital upfront to purchase and restore every single item, taking on all the risks ourselves. • Direct Dealings with No Intermediaries: We manage every single price personally. This allows us to eliminate third-party costs and ensure you get the best possible profit margin as a buyer or collector. • Meticulous Restoration and Quality Control: We get our hands dirty. Every item is carefully restored and verified with an obsessive eye for detail before going up for auction. • Secure and Eco-Friendly Shipping: To prevent inflated shipping costs and ensure indestructible packaging, my wife and I head out almost every evening, often at unusual hours, to collect heavy-duty industrial cardboard from businesses in our neighborhood. We hand-select only pre-evaluated, ultra-resistant materials to offer you maximum protection at the lowest possible cost. Choosing our lots means relying on the historic expertise of a family that has lived this passion since 2004, while investing in the next generation. Our schools and students thank you deeply for your trust. Happy bidding!
