Wesbster- Chicago 210 open reel deck in what looks to be in well cared for condition. Moves tape both directions but no audio output while playing. I do hear some static coming out of the speaker. Looks like the tubes in the bottom of the unit are working but there are a few more internally that have shields and I cannot tell if they are okay or not. Cosmetically it has a couple of nicks in the outer fabric, but nothing major and the faceplate in gorgeous and scatch free. Cabinet feels rock solid. Record light comes on.
I believe this unit will play AND record in both directions. Heads are shiny and look to be in good nick, too. No external microphone.
He is asking $95 OBO.
History of the business.
