Calling All Yamahas. Time to Post Your Pics

Some old, something new, and a mixer too!

If you've got Yammie guitars I'd love to see pics. Got one of those cool BX-1's?

The Yammie guitars are a pair of identical classical boxes ~ 1970...my electrics are all Fender, Gibson and BC Rich 70s~90s:thmbsp: I'd post some pics but both of them are at my moms place 100 miles south of me right now:sigh:

Raynald, what a beautiful 1010 set... :drool:

Thanks. Tonight I moved things around and managed to squeeze the CT-1010 that came with my latest CA-1010 into the place the CT-610 was in, barely. Now I have the matching near perfect 1010s playing through my Kef 103.2. I just can't describe how beautiful it sounds.

Just finished a brief repair and deoxit on my CR-220 and figured I might as well clean and shine it up too! The knobs were grimy, the case dusty.

I used some Armor All wheel cleaner on the knobs and faceplate and really cleaned up all the dirt and grime. Now it's a nice and bright, shiny unit.

Seems a shame to keep it in the garage! I may have to bring it downstairs and re-audition it to see if it sounds any better. A recap might be in the works next.

Here's a nudie:

How foolish of me...

I forgot one in my last post...CDR-HD1000, CD/HD recorder.

Nice cleanup Shimniok, looks really good.

SOTA nice mordern setup, kind of digital vs. vintage.

and it is almost fair to call the Promix 01 vintage :)

My second CA/CT-1010 set, this one almost mint. In these shots the CA-1010 is hooked up to my fairly recent CT-610.

Finally decided to get my hands on the legendary T-85 and this one is in very nice shape.

:thmbsp: That is a good looking setup.

Don't know if these are common knowledge, but I just found out about them today and they look incrredible (like my old CDX-2000). They are the CDS-2000 and CDS-1000, and they seem to be designs worthy to accompany the legendary CDX-2000/5000/10000 units of the past (they even include wood sides!!!)...

• Disc Compatibility: SA-CD, CD, CDR/RW (MP3, WMA)
• Frequency Response: 2Hz-50kHz (SA-CD), 2Hz-20kHz (CD)
• Harmonic Distortion: 0.0017% (SA-CD), 0.002% (CD)
• Signal-to-Noise Ratio: 116 dB (SACD, CD)
• Dynamic Range: 110 dB (SA-CD), 100 dB (CD)
• Dimensions (W x H x D): 435 x 137 x 440mm
• Weight: 15kg

I would be surprised if they were not worthy of their superlative predecessors. However, my CDX-10000 will remain my daily CD player for quite a few years to come.
 
I picked these up last week for $25.00. They are:
AX 900U
T 60 Tuner
KX W392 dual cassette

The amp is flawless. I haven't done much with the other two except to confirm that they are functional.

You got a great deal! As I recall, that AX900U is powerful, and a bit of a handful to move around (i.e., heavy...a good thing :-).

Congratulations, that's a heck of bargain for some nice gear. The integrated amp is obviously the star of the bunch.
 
Waiting on the sidelines.....

These are the ones that do not have a spot right now.

CA-1010, CR-1000, CR-2040, CT-1010, CT-610. That's what I call having a deep bench!
