Yeah, Arran may have a valid point about spec'ing as many components out as you can to haggle for a better price, but I don't want to put any kind of jinx on it by doing that. Never had any reason to do this before. If I don't think about it, I never have to worry about anything in the bad components department. The only problem I ever have is when I break something and have to fix or replace it. I can "feel" that this one is alive, just in a long slumber, waiting to be awoken... Oh, yes. She weighs in only at about 48 pounds I believe, so shipping would be astronomical I would predict, were I to send it off. And I feel this one would be in my "wheelhouse", but don't worry. I won't do anything to the cabinet but clean it up, and the chassis will be faithfully restored to a far greater degree than what the 38-1 received.
P.S. Medford is only a 15 hour and 58 minute drive from Mesa, Russ...
