Notes:
- We will ignore discount requests unless a competitor appears offering the same model with equivalent maintenance (this is important) at a lower price. If it doesn't sell, we will gradually lower the price, but the minimum will be 5000 yen.
- Occasionally, some people confuse this with a Walkman, but this is a monaural tape recorder. It will play normally with any 2-pole, 3-pole, or 4-pole single-earphone plugged in, but if you connect headphones or double-ear earphones, the right channel will not produce sound. If you want to listen with both ears, please use a 2-pole male to 3-pole female conversion adapter. (Since this is a monaural cassette recorder, it will not be stereo.)
- This sale is for the main unit only. Please prepare recording tapes and 2 AA batteries separately.
- The speaker at the bottom of this unit will only turn off when general earphones with an impedance of 32Ω or less are connected. (It is designed to cut power to the amplifier when it detects a load on the earphone jack.)
- Due to lighting conditions, the enlarged image of the pause switch, which appears washed out white in image 3, is provided in image 4.
- There are quite a few scratches. Please refer to image 4.
