Sony - ICF-6000L World radio

Here is an iconic and rare portable receiver Sony ICF-6000L, a true vintage design jewel from the late 1970s. This model stands out for its unique military-inspired aesthetic ("rugged design"), originally conceived for outdoor use and to resist splashes and dust.
The radio features 4 frequency bands: FM, MW, LW and SW (shortwave), with a vertical tuning scale with unmistakable retro charm. It has separate knobs for volume and tone, and a robust front metal handle to protect the panel.
