Scott 800B - Massachusetts
Posted on September 29, 2025 at 2:52pm 4 Comments 0 Likes
Hello All, I recently found a "mint" 800B...Yes, the word mint gets very overused, but I cant literally find a single pinpoint of corrosion on either chassis, nor a single flaw on the huge Chippendale cabinet...its just perfect. Anyone know of an "expert" to assist on the electrical restoration in the Massachusetts area? thank you!
