My first lasonic

baddboybill - 2008-11-14 07:35

Back in the late 80's my girlfriend bought me this lasonic trc931 for christmas. I had it until about 1993 when I bought the lasonic trc975. At that time I did not need 2 boomboxes so I gave the 931 to my sister. Well I guess years went on and she gave it to my brother and years later he gave it to my friend who up until a few weeks ago had it in his basement collecting alot of dust/ I finally got my 1st lasonic back and after cleaning and replacing the pause button its almost like new Big Grin

Beautiful specimen there Baddbill. Love the 931, it's a real classic. Can't wait till I get mine soon!

Great that all the other owners looked after it too.



Rock On.
