Trident Series 65 Question

Archived from groups: rec.audio.pro (More info?)

Hi. I just got a Trident Series 65. I'm more of a producer than an
engineer. I'm very new
to electronics :-) ... ANYWAYS, I want to take some photos of this
console and would like to replace
the lights first... I already unsoldered and took out the old lamps
[I'm talking about the VU lamps...]

Does anyone have a direct link to these lamps online? they seem like
they are 1" long?
or even a better: a link to an LED I can just throw in there?

If so could you please email it to me at rob@harmoniepark.com ? thanks
so much!
