Working Condition: repaired, fully and well working - details see: "purchase agreement" below - Work performed: repaired, De-oxed controls switches and pots with quality contact cleaner, cleaned de-greased and re-lubricated mechanical parts, re-soldered aged solder points, performed all adjustments. Repaired the dust cover and replaced the dust cover hinge parts. Physical cleaning / detail work. The unit is in fine fully working condition. As with all vintage electronics: this unit is of age past the life expectancy of parts of which it was built and thus for a lasting value I recommend to have it fully refurbished prior to long term usage to be long term reliable for the future.

Physical Condition: "fair" - had several damages that I repaired, shows sings of use and age and thus is cosmetically a bit challenged: The dust cover shows spots or discoloration and scratches and one of it's hinges is repaired (see photo) - the face plate had a crack. Various visible signs of wear, tear and age - overall appearance: acceptable (see photos) - I tried to capture the short comings in the photos posted here, but If needed I can provide more detail photos that focus on the defects that you want to see.

Price: $775

I aim to perform all work that I foresee necessary, to provide equipment in well and reliably working condition - refurbish in as much detail as possible - and test thoroughly, to gain confidence through testing, to predict that it will last, but cannot guarantee that. Once work complete, it is still possible that something be wrong or can go wrong with it (vintage!) - Prices of items offered here reflect the work that went into a given piece of gear until it is listed, but cannot cover what a given piece may need or may need in the future - that would be at your risk and expense - If there are defects, problems or shortcomings: I will be glad to help and likely I can repair, but it will be at additional cost - I do service what I sell at my regular shop rate.
