Description from the seller

The RS-641 features rugged construction, reliable mechanics, and a true vintage look.

The front is in stunning condition, with clear VU meters, shiny knobs and no notable signs of use. The top of the housing has some scratches and minimal damage on the corners of the front panel. See photos.
