So you embrace a side of the culture from the good old days that focussed on acceptance, peace, love and unity and come in here with you super agressive attitude? Yeah good work there, real smart.funktoon said:unlike you, boomboxes aren't collector's items to me. they're symbols of the REAL (as in ANTI-gangsta) hip-hop CULTURE i still embrace and that is the REASON you all have YOUR boxes.
YOU'RE WELCOME

F*** pop culture I buy them cuz I like boom boxes.
UnLike these Millennials that live in their pop bubble full of bulshiat.

Oh trust me I used to sound like a cocky horse's ass when I started out here too.

ps:
As a point of 'cultural interest'(!) I am currently listening to "Jose Carreras & Friends Sing Operatic Arias, Duets & Popular Songs" (Live) on tape through my Sharp GF-9000 - and I just may blast out a earful of Jimi Hendrix later.![]()
Apparently this is an actual model.Mystic Traveller said:Wondering guys if somebody can remind me which box is this.
I am sure I 've seen its pictures but just can't place it and recall the name.

Deech just spotted one at a market stall, with red grilles.
Sherton? Shorton? Never heard of it before!

WOW! I love this one! I have this thing in my head that says that a boombox is anything you can walk with, at least around the block, and is stereo. I personally stick with tape cassette capable and radio ones. This thing look way ahead of it's time!Aiwa said:this sharp is a real pre-boombox!

The GF-5757 was available in two colors - silver and gold. The gold version has black markings around the knobs and switches, but there was also a (maybe slightly darker) gold version that had white markings. That's probably the one you have a chance to get.Alpha Mike said:Hello!
Did not find suitable topic.. SHARP GF 5757 in white/beige color. Does someone own it. I have a chance to get one (advertised in all working order) but I wanna know how it looks in real life? Good or like it paint has been just removed from plastic?

There were also different Sharp models (in different colors) that used the same body as the GF-5757. Those models were Sharp GF-6565H and Sharp GF-454. In the picture below, the GF-5757 models are the top right and bottom left.
