its kinda of fun being able to get a box and restoring it to working status,, i was a bit worried since even thou a got it cheap my only concern was the dreaded function switch syndrome which most lasonics suffer from and being able to find a good working one is mostly a nightmare ,,well after plugging her in and hearing some static well i said to myself atleast there is audio so i moved the function switch and it grabbed and then the radio came alive to that point i said there might be a chance for it digging deeper i found that the plastic extention was broke but the function switch was good ,,so i proceeded to desmantle the rest of it ..it needed alot of deoxit i had balance problems left and right channels cutting off but after a big function switch bath it started to work better as i kept playing with it ,,i belive it just sat for so long and created some oxidation on those switches,,well its still works good ,i still have to clean the top deak which works but had a low volume on one channel and a hum which seems like a bad ground other than that is all good

awesome

luckily mine just needed the controls cleaned but she's fully working and it does seem to work better the more i use it . i'm only two tape deck buttons away from it being complete ,and the tape buttons are different from every other lasonic . go figure huh .
