Boxed Sony Walkman TPS-L2 & MDR3 Headphones. Here it is the one that started it all – the Sony Walkman TPS-L2 from 1979 – or maybe better known as the Guardian of the Galaxy Walkman. Initially they called it different things in different territories. Originally marketed as the “Soundabout” in the U. The “Stowaway” in the U. And the “Freestyle” in Sweden but in Japan they called it the Walkman – so many US businessmen bought them in Japan and took them home that the Walkman name stuck and was eventually used across the world. This is one of the early ones that does not have “Walkman” embossed on the front – so they slapped a “Walkman” sticker on it. And here is it Boxed and complete with it’s Case, original MDR3 Headphones, Instruction Manual and Cassette Case. I set my prices fairly – some people on here seem to think that a refurbished TPS-L2 on it’s own is worth more that I’m asking for Boxed one with the original headphones and accessories – so grab a bargain! You won’t be disappointed when it arrives and if there are any issues they will be resolved to your satisfaction. As with all my refurbished Walkmans you don’t have to take my work for how good they sound because I provide you with a video so you can hear for yourself. I’m not a professional sound engineer – I feed the output from the walkman into the mic input on my Canon DSLR. These are complex analogue machines in a digital world – the old belt residue must be completely and meticulously removed – otherwise the new belt will wobble causing wow and flutter. The box is badly sun faded and has some tape marks on the front. The Walkman In in nice used condition. Mechanically the belts had hardened so would no longer play – so I’ve installed 2 new belts, cleaned the head, roller and volume potentiometers – so it now plays perfectly, in stereo, at the right speed with no wow or flutter. The stop button is at a slight angle and it does rewind and fast-forward as it should so long as you keep the button depressed. The volume adjusts smoothly without crackle or dropout. Battery terminals are corrosion free. The “Hotline” microphone also still works perfectly. The MDR3 headphones work perfectly. I’ve replaced the old cable with a new one. The Belt-Clip case is in really nice condition. It has it’s original Instructions and Cassette Case. This Walkman is perfectly useable playing as good as the day it was new nearly 40 years ago! I have 10 years experience refurbishing 100’s of Walkmans! You get what you pay for – there won’t be any disappointment when it arrives – it will work as described! If it IS as described and you change your mind – relist it yourself and feel free to reuse my Listing, Pictures and Video Link – you’ll probably make a profit! I’m not an audio engineer which is why I include a video so you can hear it play and judge for yourself. I do not extensively test these over periods of hours/days – I don’t have the time. My only guarantee is that it should work as you see in the video when it arrives. All items will be bubble wrapped and dispatched in a rigid cardboard box to ensure that they reach you without any damage in transit. See my other auctions for loads more cool Sony Walkmans.
