just scored this (what i think to be quite rare) sanyo m w50k, never seen this model before it even has a mirco tape
it in ok condition under all the dirt and paint splats
the only thing missing is the metal trim that goes around the tape deck buttons, im never going to find an orignal trim but
ive seen people reproduce 777 stickers that go over the controls, could anyone make one here or know anyone that could,

I have his brother, Fisher PH-M77, with the same issue,
this trim replica from aluminium was made by one of its previous owners.

That's mine:

Nice find! The Sanyo is quite rare.
I would say the Fisher a.k.a is more common.
Especially here in the states.
Now you need the Aiwa CS W7E
Here is mine.

Well done Geoff! I have both the Sanyo MW 50K and the Fisher (also the Aiwa, but the latter needs repair) and love them all. I'd never seen the Fisher's twin, the WMR-CM. Thanks for sharing, Mystic T :-)

so i thought id give the sanyo a belt change on both decks , as per normal main deck belt has turned to mush, a well built deck and i was surprised to find no flat belt only square, this is a keeper buy need to find space to put her, all it need now is the facia trim around deck buttons, does any one know anyone who can reproduce these

Great stuff ! Fisher Aiwa Sanyo all good, but how useful were those micro cassettes really ?! like I've never seen the point..

Peace

Jerry, didn't you ever record prank calls on an answering machine to play them back for your friends? The Aiwa is a great way to share them!
(That's all I got - I really can't think of any other reason :lol: )

Edit: *Sanyo
