It is often called the little brother of the highly-acclaimed GX-747... but that does not do it justice, because this recorder has what no other tape recorder has... and that is EVERYTHING! How about an auto reverse switch in 0.4 seconds? Or 6 Glass & Ferrite heads... it is the last recorder made by Akai... But I will not list the rest here, you can google that etc. I will also not list the specifications here, the interested know how to find them (or already know them). What is important, is that this Akai is in top condition with the beautiful original metal reels by Akai included, on which are recording made by this machine with incomparable dynamics. Also a nice copy (bound) of the user manual is included. Photos of this machine say enough, I think. Pick up is preferred in Hoorn (North Holland). But in case of shipping, the device will be packaged well, (bubble wrap, flo-pack and triple cardboard for heavier devices) Shipping will be done by PostNL, by insured and registered mail. Multiple purchases will be sent separately due to the size and weight, which is why it is separately calculated.
