Offered in this listing is a 1970s built SONY ST-5130 tuner in very good condition. These were built by Sony from 1972 to 1977 in Japan.
This is old school stuff that is built like a tank and has features omitted on later models, like the multipath oscilloscope outputs, adjustable RCA outputs, INS (Impulse Noise Suppressor) and AFC (Automatic Frequency Control).
After years of unused shelf life the unit has been dusted off and checked thoroughly before being listed here on Reverb. Everything but one feature is working as designed, lights and bulbs included. Merely the left side adjustable output pot is currently not working as it should, an issue that might clear over time, but the fixed outputs are working without problems and will be the one you'll be using most likely anyways.
The tuner is in overall nice cosmetic condition, as can be seen in the numerous pictures posted. It comes with a print-out of the owner's manual found online for reference.
Check out the video posted off such tuner on YouTube, which is NOT showing the one offered in this listing.
