Well here she is my newest edition and just in time for Christmas :drool: The Sharp GF777E. This thing is awesome and thanks to Nick (ClaretBadger) for the trade :thumbsup: I truly love the looks and sound way better than my GF767. All functions are fully working including Recording and APLD... I will eventually give it a total breakdown and clean entire inside and decks, rebelt and demagnetized heads.

This is one of those must have Grails that I've wanted since I started collecting and I'm sure glad I have it in my collection :-) the sound is just so awesome!!! Can't wait to get some Fatdog Labels and show this baby off :thumbsup: I'm even hoping to get some custom labels from Bobby too :-). Well hope you enjoy pics. Sorry about crappy lighting the pics always come out nicer in daylight... I will post more once I get labels on her!!!!

Congrats Bill! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I enjoy mine in like new condition. It got some real bass. Cosmetics on GF777 is flawless. So hard to keep eyes away from this unit. :yes: I've never went over 1/2 of the volume on it with those "under the grill speaker bass controls" at 1/2 position. I got beautiful labels from Bobby. :yes: :yes:

Always leave some clearance between the tuner knob. If not, it will go and rub on the face and make scratches. I put a transparent thin plastic adhesive back up bumper in between to avoid that happening. I also put thin felt pads and put them in between the small knobs and the face of teh unit. The screws section at Menards have those tiny felt pads. :yes:

Thanks Royce ;-). I do love looks and sound better than my 767 but my 767 was mint too. This one has some usage but still looks awesome and sounds great. Thanks for tips too :thumbsup:

Congrats! Awesome Christmas present :yes: Think I'll have to start saving as I'd really like a 777 but don't generally spend much on my boxes. I trust you're going to wrap it up and put it under the Christmas tree now :yes:

Thanks guys ;-). I decided to paint speakers because they looked so faded. I think they came out pretty cool :drool:
