After one of my many lengthy phone conversations with Reno, I mentioned I would quite like a nice compact logic controlled quality Walkman at some point............
What does Reno do???
He sends me no less than FIVE units, 3 Sony & 2 Panasonics
all for free
Well, he is great to talk to, very funny & very kind & generous!!
Well, I finally got round to charging the battery that fits all of them & testing them out.................
Now Reno told me they were untested so it was time to try them all one by one - Would you believe it 3 of them work, one of them better than the others & is the one I chose to clean up & add to my 'Old Clunkers' collection
It was very dirty inside & out but a couple of hours later it looks very respectable & with my in-ear Sennheiser earphones it sounds very nice, amazingly stable tape mechanism & all the features any tape player needs
Changing to my large over ear Sony phones proved just how competent this player is: Dire Straits - Six Blade Knife is a difficult track for any cassette player let alone a Walkman
So all in all, a happy bunny this evening
