Not mine, but just over the hill from me if someone wants me to check it out for them.

It's 9:00 pm and I just made it home after a late day playing with wires and finally driving 30 minutes each way to pick up the "G".

I'm pooped! Too poopeed to take photos or even begin to clean her up.

The seller over stated a few things.:no:. The face is in pretty good to excellent condition, rather grimey, and has a few very minor superficial scrapes. One of the pot splined shafts is slighly bent and it has a left channel with level issues that may (probably) or may not be clean-fixed.

For these reasons--he accepted $200 and of course I got the clean CT-F9191 with some meter issues for free.

I'm really happy overall and have a potentially great deal on a unit I've coveted for sometime.

I'll post before and after pics this weekend and also let all know how the lower output channel challenge went.

OMG! I cleaned her up and not only does she sparkle with beauty but she makes even my unmodded 7's sing like never before!

I was so ready to clean her up the next day that I forgot to take 'before' photo's until I was halfway through the spraying/cleaning.

I finally got done today with the electro-colonic and carefully reassembled it. After the cursury switch and knob settings check--and a tense moment of prayer to th DeOxit gods--I flipped it on to find all working superbly except for a burned bulb.

I rate this one a 9.9 (or 9.8 for the discriminating) and I think it qualifies as a steal for $200!

PS. Added a photo of the Pioneer deck that was thrown in for free too!

I saw a G-8000 today with salt air corrosion on the faceplate, the guy said he could sell it on e-bay in this condition for $400. Yeah right. Pass.
 
Raphael, you've got a very good price on it, especially for the condition.

Now SoCal Sam, how corroded was the G-8000's faceplate?
