Please note that this is 100% untested and has yet to be plugged in after sitting safely in climate controlled storage for many years – Ensuring you have the opportunity to safely bring the capacitors & tubes on a Variac to help preserve their integrity. Overall in amazing shape for its age with next to no markings or scratches on the unit. The only imperfection on the unit is in the front where a slight crack was repaired at some point in its life. The camera makes the contrast appear more visible than it does in person in regards to this blemish. A beautiful piece of history that is ready for a new loving home.
