PANASONIC RQ-SW88V WALKMAN RADIO CASSETTE PLAYER LIKE SONY Introduction
TOP OF THE LINE ALL-METAL MODEL; COLLECTIBLE SERVICED CONDITION, WORKS AND SOUNDS LIKE NEW
Heads are just like new; Very hard to find like this
FANTASTIC MATSUSHITA ENGINEERING; NICE AND HEAVY
This Walkman is not for everyone, but it is for you if you want the very best in quality.
Perfect precise and sweet sound with excellent tape stability (very low wow and flutter).
If your own SW88V/SW99V does not sound like that it needs service.
The SW88V and SW99V are the same models, they share the same service manual and are identical
except SW99V has one extra feature, VMSS that adds extra vibrations to the bass.
With SW88V already having a Super Bass system the VMSS is not needed for 99% of the people.

I've been collecting vintage stereos for a long time, so trades for old stereos in any condition will be considered; 70's/80's boxes preferred.
