mint Nak LX-3 deck, so perfect it looked new. Great price.
Got it out of the box, played a tape I had laying around, needed azimuth adjustment. Turned the wrong screw and broke the retainer holding the play head in place.
Found a replacement part online, put it all back together, plugged it in an poof! The voltage switch on the back had accidentally been thrown to 100v while I was repairing the deck and it was fried.
Never got to play or record a single tape.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
