    X-12 Mic Preamp Kit
    http://www.fivefishstudios.com/ffimages/X12-Preamp-Fivefish-small.jpg
    This is my own version of a classic preamp, popular in the 70s and still popular today. It's not a clone since I'm using a totally different signal path and design, and different input and output transformers. But the sound nevertheless is awesome.  Big and beefy with lots of transformer mojo goodness.
