I'm including a set of aluminium reels 26cm and a set of TEAC 612 reel hub adaptors as a gift to get you started immediately! She is in a beautiful exterior condition with a few scuffs and a scratch or 2 on the outside, please see the detailed photographs provided for all the details. This is the unit you will receive. She has had a bit of work done, new belts new capacitors and diodes on the main power board and on the play record board. This work was all done in 2024 so she will give a good long service. I have bench tested her and her heads are perfect. But please know that vintage electronics are not guaranteed as they will require trained service technicians to service them from time to time. Also due to her weight the sale is considered final and no return is possible.
