I picked up a Sony WM-SXF10 yellow sports walkman from eBay recently (model shown in the photo)
I used to have one of these way back when I was in elementary school and loved it. The thing was built like a tank, and you can have the cover open while a tape is playing (great for bending purposes).
This particular one I have now unfortunately has a really bad warbling during playback. I'm not sure exactly why that is happening. Before I bust the thing open I figured I'd check on here if anyone else owns one of these or is familiar with how to fix that issue.

I originally posted this in the regular walkman section, should have posted here because it is a tech issue.

These walkmans tend to need new belts because belts are very thin and stretch easily from old age.
