National RX-5350

I finally came across one. Good conditon, some minor electronic problems, missing one EQ tip and needs the original long antenna.

Nice find! This is either #1 or #2 on my list to get some day. (Tied with the M90).

Buy it online or find it?

Always a great score! Looks good. The 5080 panny has the same antenna

Great catch! Nothing like an RX5350!

That equalizer tip is so hard to get. Good luck!

Yes I know Vintage Man had some parts for me and disappeared
I can't come up with equivalent size power transformer neither.
Good thing is that now I have hands-on experience with all of RX big trio and know them in and out.

I doubt he has made a mold for this type of equalizer tip. If not he needs one tip to make the mold and try making more. Making the mold is the hard part.

PM and see...

Well guys .... Toshik PMed me to ask for a slider know for the 5350 EQ... Thanks Rimmer for him (so he can get that Bbox looking as good as possible)!

BoomboxLover, you are unfortunately right... As an ass (yes, I am calling myself an "ASS", for a 5350 EQ slider should have been one of my main moulds), I never made one... !!!!!!!!!!

Toshik, I will get back to your PM... I'm gonna see how I can get my hands on a slider-knob to make a mould and then get one made for your Beauty!

To be continued... I guess...
