Excellent, cosmetically and mechanically EL-7 The only cosmetic issue is the missing veneer on one side (see pictures) With a rare, in a box with service manual, practically new, remote control (RM-30) - all by itself is a $250 item Deck overhauled by a master technician to the tune of $480! Includes one Type II Fe-Cr LC-90 sealed tape ($60) Includes one SONY Type II Fe-Cr LC-60 open box tape used for demo (see video) PLEASE SEE DEMO in the YT video. I have a video of the remote operation as well, but Reverb won't let me post hyperlinks here. (not a videographer, so - not the best job, but it shows that all functions of the deck and the remote are operational)
A standard DISCLAIMER: the unit is fully operational and has been serviced. That said, I am selling it "as described", because this is a 40 year old piece of vintage electronics. Some people have rather quaint views on what to expect when it is described as "excellent".
