Talk to Bobby FatDog, he'll sort you out with a Big Power sticker.

Great to see another M90 go to a deserving home, enjoy her in good health for many years to come!



Rock On.

It was on ebay for starting bid of $750 and I think the buy-it-now got all the way down to $1,000 and they had it listed on craigslist for $900.

The top trim got scratches and dings. There is no way I can use it again. I have to make one with thin Al.
--------------------------
for the top trim -
send a PM to member bredgeo --

the trim --is not just a simple ' do-it-yourself ' job with one 90 degree angle -
instead - its TWO 45 degree angles with a 3/32" space --

bredgeo made a very special jig to create those bends

I made one today. It came so perfect! I didn't gue it yet. The measurement was the tricky part and I had special metal cutting and bending tools at work. I covered it with a film so didn't even make a hairline scratch on it. The angle was also a perfect 90. :yes:

Welcome to the Elite club of M-90 owners. :thumbsup:

I actually have a trim just like yours, it was done by the previous owner.

Note: it's not the one on my avatar that pic. was from 1983 when I actually own one straight out of the box. She was so brand new I was so stupid in selling it. :'-(

Opened up, removed the chassis and cleaned it inside out, washed the plastic parts, lubed and cleaned contacts with deoxit. :yes: :thumbsup:

Cleaning band switch was not that easy at all. The rear phono/line in switch is working well so also all the bands. Now it looks awesome! :breakdance: :breakdance:

Waiting for a sticker.

I sick with jealousy, though. :thumbsdown: :annoyed:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thank you!

:lol: :lol: :lol: Holly I was like that for years when I saw a nice looking M90.

Now I cannot sleep.... I want make sure its a dream or reality.... that I own one. So many of them slipped off my hands on Ebay. Two weeks ago I found one from a seller who lived around 15 miles away and I was unable to get it.

No worries! You will also own one sooner or later! Sooner is better because they are rare :yes: :yes:
