I'm selling this for a friend, so don't have a lot of information about the deck. It was purchased by her father in Hawaii many years ago.
Here's what I can tell about the current condition. All of the lights work. Rewind and Fast Forward work. There is a problem with the transport mechanism however. Pressing play does not engage the capstan wheel, so the tape does not advance. The meters have collected some dust over the years—particularly the left meter. The dust is on the... inside of the meter, so I am not able to clean it.
Cosmetically it is in nice condition for a unit that is, I'm guessing, more than 40 years old (the serial number is SN30123 if you have a way of checking). I can attest that it weighs a lot (33 lbs) and is built like a tank.
The deck will ship USPS Parcel Select Ground. Please let me know if you have any questions. I'll do my best to answer.
