Sharp GF-508 SB

[Hisrudeness]

I bought a silver one of these earlier this year (GF-508 st) but it arrived with plume issues and cosmetic issues. As well as being the smelliest grimiest box I can remember. Docs is having a look at the technical issues for me.



In the meantime this domestic Japanese all black (SB) version arrive a week or so ago. This one is in stunning condition and plays well out the box. It has a good strong powerful sound and must be one of the best all rounders Sharp did.

Wow! Beauty! That is the rare black version!

I have the silver version of the same in mint condition. I got it non working but cosmetically in like new condition for a fair price. Fixed it all.

Here is the label from Bobby!

Have a look at the label on this boxed one. From a Russian collection I think.

wow! That brings memories of I opening up my brand new GF9696 in 1982.....

I have never seen that label.... That is new to me!

These boxes sound better than the 777 IMHO.

Yep, used to be stationed in Moscow. Probably still there.
