MPN: 75S-1 | Brand: Collins |
This is a good looking piece of S-Line equipment. It includes the Waters tuning modification, and also appears to have made it's way back to Collins for repair in 1966 (see photos for sticker). It's missing only a few crystals and the controls turn smoothly. All paint is original and looks very good with minimal wear. The power cord is very stiff and should probably be replaced for safety considerations.
This unit is believed to have not been used in many years, likely decades, ...and with this in mind we have made no attempt to power-on this unit or test in any way. It is being sold exactly as found, and will almost certainly require servicing which could include (but not limited to): cleaning, alignment, lubricating controls, new components such as capacitors or tubes (if present), and so on. With this in mind, the unit is being sold as-is with no returns allowed. Unless you are qualified and capable of working on this unit yourself, or are willing to pay a qualified individual to do the work for you, we suggest you revisit the idea of whether this is the right equipment for you.
