Not rarely heard of among musicians, especially those of my generation. They have hundreds of products -- as you can see on their website -- and videos all over Youtube, and information all over the web.

And found this puppy, coming out of school (first one I find this origin, ever). I will take good care of it, clean it up and put it for sale (it is a late production, unit, with 48KB on-board): Fully restored!! Works beautifully! IMG_2482.mp4 Will do really well on eBay... and will pay all the bills of this Auction1 ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam242 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Excellent choice of song! But how is that 800 "fully restored" when it is obviously missing the cartridge slots' aluminum RF shield??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like that 800 didn't have it as the door is clean underneath. @FaicuaiWhat song is that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(as usual) Most late-production (1983) units DO NOT have them (cart-door comes bare clean). The unit I showed here is one of those cases, which is exactly as my green-plungers 1983 (Made-in-USA badge). My 040-0077 unit, however. comes with the metal angled-shield on the cart-door. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, in PDM format and played through IDE interface.. on totally stock 800... That's the magic of AVG-cart, can't beat it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
