$50 · Philips EL 3541 D/52T Tube Tape Recorder 1960s

For sale is a lovely piece of history. This is a mono, quarter track, valve unit from the early 60s. This is the one with the “magic eye” tube in the stop button which acts as a level metre. Works but needs some servicing. Reproduces ok, recording is untested. Transport is ok, but rewind struggles a little. Includes the original microphone and what seems to be all the cables it came with.
