Another GRAIL arrives from CANADA!

[Cpl-Chronic]

Heyya kids, =)

What's crackin' box addicts? Just got another grail from eBay & BBY member jameswp67. It's in good cosmetic shape, except a few obvious blemishes. It's fully working, although full of grime & a couple of ink? stains/scuffs but the tuner/VU/Cassette windows are all OK & should polish up well.

I'll have to go over to the eBay & BBY member feedback area & post some positive reviews for James. Apparently, he spent some money to rebuild the unit back to fully functional & he shipped it super fast, so I'd rate him as solid from my limited experience, buying from him.

More pics to follow soon:

I forgot to add that aside from the finish needing a refresh, there are absolutely no deep scratches, gouges, cracks or missing pieces. All lines, including the fine ridges. along the bottom of the face are intact & perfect. There is absolutely no dings or worn corners & the chrome is in great shape, as well as the knobs & switches. Everything needs a good clean & polish whiles some spots could use a repaint but actually, that's a good thing as it shows that everything is original & not rebuilt with bondo, etc.

Congratulations Brother! James is a great Dude.

All pots & controls are smooth as silk & static free. The FM selector is a bit flaky & can cause sound to cut out in 1 or both channels but a slight wiggle brings it back in line. Radio reception is a bit weak for stereo but all in all, a good solid buy.

Cheers,
Cpl

Antennas are FUBAR'd so am looking for replacements. Top trim is dented & needs a replacement. Already lined up possible source for a replica trim. A little pricey but should be OK.

glad too see the mighty M90 in your hands... i see big things for this puppy coming from you!

The plastic & chrome is shining up nicely & so far, no serious pits or peeling. Th controls were cleaned thoroughly & reassembled. I need to get the cassette door off to properly polish the window. Any thoughts would be welcome.

Thanx,
Cpl

Thanx man,

It'll be another challenge to come up with something unique, yet again but I already have ideas brewing in the pot. We'll see how the 'stew' comes out.
