This Akai GX-77 deck is for parts or repair.  All mechanical functions operate properly (except for cue/review button), but there is not output.  I used this unit for years but it just stopped all output.  It was a really great unit and I'm sorry to let it go, but maybe someone can repair it and it can be enjoyed once again.  VU meters light up when unit is first turned on.  Counter works. There is no front cover and no tapes or take-up reels are included.
