well yesterday i had some mayor work ahead of me getting ready for a special service at our church next week so i picked up our guitarist at his house as he was going to do some repairs and adding a small wall ,, so he started to pull his working equipment from his room and i was loading it on my pickup, well as i walked a couple times back i just walked in a bit to the room then all off a sudden toward the right behind a bag i just noticed a mini ,,sue enough it was a sharp qt-50 ,, well i said hey you got a mini he said you want it oh yea so i grabbed the sucker right away just to find batteries had started to leak so i quicky removed them but i kept on hearing something else loose so i thought it was just dirt from old age and was shaking it outside ,, well today i opened it up just to see how much damage was not that bad as most of it was on the metal of the transformer so i cleaned it up deoxit all controls and a new belt and it all works ,,except that the rattaling was a piece that fell off that controls the pause but other than that its all working...

I bought my girlfriend, now wife, one of those back in the 80's in mint green. Forgot all about it. That was our beach music provider.
