Made in Japan late 1980's
This unit is in *ROUGH* shape. I bought it at a yard sale many years ago with thoughts to refurbish it but never got around to it. It was used (abused) by a DJ. The input RCA jacks are broken and the unit was modified with a long-shielded cord for the inputs. The Power switch is broken, and the unit has nicks, scrapes and rust. Three of the four feet are missing. The unit does power on and the right lights are visible (see photos). Other than turning the unit on I have not done any testing, I have no idea if it works or not. Please see all photos!
