Hi Chris:
It's a brown one. It's in excellent shape with the exception of a crack running along the top left of the case.
It was modified, the line cord looks new but very short (non polarized) and one side of the line is going to a 3ag fuse and power resistor, there is also a disc cap or mov across it. All this is placed on a small board affixed to the top of the case inside.
It plays good, although there are more stations coming in from mid to end of band then from the beginning to mid?
Very clean inside and out.
What do you think?
