No longer a virgin!

So here's my new and first purchase - very happy to say the least!






What do you guys reckon, nice box?

On a side note, just from glancing, what do you guys think about the inside heads etc from this pic below..?


Glad to be part of the movement! Long live boomboxes and boomboxery!

I'd replace the pinch roller and clean everything else

Heads look perfectly fine to me, just swab them with some iso alcohol

Would I have to buy another box as a doner for parts, or can rollers be found online?

I myself would clean it with isoprop alco, i´d replace it only if it looks unbalanced or like barrel or even sticky

Was this the one for sale in London? Sutton?

Nice clean box. Usually these lead hard lives and are dented up, chrome rot etc.

I see you got the Euro version with a push-button tuner light, and a fine-tuning knob!

No, Surrey, Sutton. Indeed, no knocks, dents, rust or rot, its clean as hell.

Indeed I did! I was happy it was this version I found after seeing the other.

I agree. And, what a lovely box. Congratulations on a proper and very respectful Boomer.

Thanks!
Though again, where do I find these, ebay or?

 

[THAFUZZ]

Pretty sure eBay is a good start. Amazon, etc.

Hell yes my man and guess what? I just found one on e-bay - another first purchase! More than happy about finding a mint copy for under $100

Great score, a good first box if ever there was one!
