Yesterday i got another Elta Master Blaster. Believe me, it looks like it came straight out of a deep fat fryer or a nicotine bath. Its in overall complete condition. The only thing is, the antennas arent original The tapes are not working and it needs an overall good cleaning job from outside and inside. I think (hope), everything will be near perfect after some repair and cleaning. Here re some pics :dunce:

Much work ahead!

Would you believe if I told you that I live in a country with nearly 200 million people, and I only know "one person " who owns this radio??

See the video of the owner of the radio.

Here he took the radio to a crew of collectors to perform maintenance and mods:

And here, the radio was returned to the owner live on the Hip Hop TV show, with some modifications:

If i had kept em all, it would be #6 :-) 1 went to Gordie, 1 to Electric K, 1 to Younger@heart, 1 to my DJ friend Magic Mayer. This 1 is left and another for parts or restoration. If somebody realy is interested, let me know with offers via PM. But im more interested in a swap cause it was very expensive and im not sure, if anybody here is willing to pay the price i did (for an MasterBlaster in this condition). But first it will get a good clean and some repair. Pics comin soon :yes:

Yeah, But they re going extrem expensive. The first i ve got was the Matzuki. Found it on a flea in Switzerland in near mint condition and paid $$ 50. That was 10 years ago. Now they re going from 300 up to 500 and more €uros(!).

Where do you find these things! You had 6?!?!?!?! wow

Those red speakers look great in that one shown in the video.

If these are going for $300-$500, that is still a deal.

I don't think there are even 6 of these in the USA right now.....

There is a guy, who I talked to off of craigslist... who lives rather close to my new place... who has 3 of them...
He contacted me and expressed interest in selling... I have talked to him on and off over the past year...
And I can't get his price on the right side of 1k...
Very frustrating.
