Sony Walkman WM-22 in very good condition and in full working order after refurbishment. The Walkman comes with its original Sony carry strap but no headphones. A new DeckTech belt has been fitted. Head, pinch roller and capstan have been checked and cleaned. The head has been demagnetised. Mechanism lubricated and motor oiled. Volume control pot cleaned with Deoxit. Circuit boards checked and cleaned. The play, rewind and fast forward functions are all working perfectly. The fast forward/rewind gear has been fitted with a new top hat washer and circlip as the original had split (see photos 23 & 24) – this is a common repair issue in this series of Walkmans. Playback quality is very good (watch and listen to the video). The Walkman is in very good condition. The door back casing shows evidence of abrasion and there are a couple of surface scratches. The door also shows signs of abrasion but there are no serious scratches. Please study all the photographs carefully using zoom to see finer detail. The battery cover was missing and has been replaced with a well fitting 3D printed cover. The battery terminals are clean and free of corrosion. If you intend to use your own set of headphones please note the guidance in photo 25 about the type of 3.5mm jack plug that is suitable for use with this model of Walkman. If you have any questions – please ask.
