Wow! I just love the 1941 Zenith 6D525....and there is a lot to like....Solid Walnut on the top and sides, a beautiful burl veneer for the face, 6 tubes for awesome reception, big, clear easy to see dial, and those cool vent slots in the top and sides giving it the "Toaster" nickname....in a darkened room, you can even catch the glow from the tubes! ......a very popular Zenith table model with collectors....this one has original lacquer finish, and although there are some touch-ups and... a few very small dings here and there, the overall appearance is very pleasing. The Original dial lens is very clear with minimal scratches....we've done our usual re-cap, and out of tolerance resistor replacement, full electrical service, alignment, tubes checked, volume control lubed and cleaned, dial cord tensioned, and a new 20, 000hr pilot bulb installed. Please note, that the tuning on this set stops just shy of 550 MHz on the low end...not an issue, unless there is a particular station at 550 that you need to receive!The set measures 12"x7-1/2"x 7" and weighs in at about 8 lbs.The Zenith works great, pulling in stations well with no external antenna needed. Nice, mellow tube sound.There is, however, a terminal for a long wire antenna if you get curious to see how far away you can pick up that distant station!
A real "personality set"...I promise, you'll love it!
