1960s Grundig stereo console / hi-fi / record player

Description

Vintage Grundig stereo console in beautiful condition. This HiFi is a model SO225, made in 1961/62. The record player still works perfectly. With the push of a button, the record drops down and spins, the arm automatically moves onto the record, and the sound is warm and vibrant. Has bass, treble, and mono/stereo controls. The record cabinet is illuminated with a working light bulb and has a shelf for storing 45s or vinyl cleaning supplies etc. The backlit radio fires up and gets reception but the tuning knob doesn’t scan, so it’s stuck on one station. Has short and long wave radio as well, but I haven’t been able to get reception on those bands. It’s retrofitted with Bluetooth and I was able to play Apple Music/Spotify on it until very recently, but the Bluetooth receiver is not currently working. Probably an easy fix— there are YouTube videos on how to do this. I’ll throw in the Bluetooth receiver in case you can figure it out. Overall, this midcentury modern MCM stunner has no glaring aesthetic flaws (a couple of light hairline scratches and a small wood chip at bottom only visible upon close inspection) and still plays records like a champ. If you want her functioning at 100% again, I can recommend a cheap old-school stereo repair shop in Chinatown. Stands 3 feet tall, 14.5” deep, 28.5” wide. The legs screw off for easy transportation. Pick up in Howard Beach, or I may be able to deliver in the NYC area.
