Overall a beautiful piece but not needs work to be fully functional. We are not radio experts so please forgive our lack of detail and please feel free to ask questions. This radio turn on (as pictured). The sound was a bit faint but relatively clear. The volume knob is touchy and moving it does little to change the sound except that movement may cause no sound. (repair needed) The top of the radio has a small penny sized circle from damage. The jazz, orchestra, talk buttons don’t seem to impact sound. The knobs need cleaned. The bass sound changer didn’t have an effect, but the treble knob did. The buttons successfully changed between bands. Cord is in great condition.
