Vintage Kenwood KR-6170 Stereo Receiver \"Jumbo Jet\" - For Parts Repair Candidate For Sale

SHIPPING | SECURE PACKAGING for sale is a rare and iconic Kenwood KR-6170 Solid State AM/FM Stereo Receiver (famously known as the \"Jumbo Jet\").

*Controls & Components: All original knobs and switches are intact and fully functional.

*Lighting: One display/dial lamp is burned out (far left tuning meter area) as visible in the photos.

Cosmetic Condition:

*Faceplate & Controls: In near-pristine condition with virtually no signs of heavy wear, clear lettering, and clean aluminum/chrome accents.
