Hello,
I have been restoring vintage audio (mostly reel to reels) for over 20 years now. This is one of the most beautiful one I have done.
Aesthetics:
The face plates were taken down to bare metal, laser engraved with lime green lettering and then clear coated with a high gloss automotive urethane finish. Hand sanded and polished to a mirror shine. I made some solid walnut panels (locally milled) that were given the same treatment. There is an engraved, epoxy-filled Pioneer logo on the side of each panel and is backlit with green LEDs. The VU meter bulbs have been replaced with blue LEDs. All knobs, switch covers and rollers have been sonically cleaned. Pictures DO NOT do it justice. This machine is gorgeous.
Mechanics/Operation
Just came out of the shop. Was serviced by Jeff at Precision Audio in Williamsville NY. You can google him and his quality of work. Everything has been cleaned, lubed and all components tested. It has been fully serviced. Heads aligned, Biased, EQd. The heads are in fantastic shape. It operates like it just came off the factory floor. He offers a 30 day guarantee after the sale of this deck.
This being a one of a kind, it is why I am asking what I am asking. You will never see another deck like this. Please don’t send me angry messages saying that I’m asking too much. I’m happy to discuss any details, pricing or just talk shop.
One picture has reels. They are not included.
Will be VERY carefully packed and fully insured to ensure a safe arrival.
Feel free to reach out with any questions and thanks for looking!!
