As this is a more than 30 years old radio it does have some age related defects, but in general it looks stunning and will be a great addition to any radio collection.
It is complete and original, and in very good cosmetic and working condition. The Dark Grey cloth covered cabinet is in great condition with a few superficial scuffs. There are a few blemishes on the teak sides and top / base, and a small amount of pitting / blemishes on the knobs, grille and chrome. All commensurate with age and use.
