Well like the tittle says I gave away my DC7 !
why and to who i hear you ask !
well the guy that swapped me the 777 for old camera gear said he had a mate that was looking for his old childhood box - the DC7.... so as i'm such a nice guy i handed over the box to him - now he was over the moon with it - should be as it was mint, the perspex dial cover and record draw were so clean and not a mark on them - the aerial was clean and straight - every thing works perfect - the speaker sound lush and clean - in fact it was 9.5 /10
But why give away some thing so clean and perfect ?
well it turns out the guy who i gave it to fixes electrical things and works on planes :huh: and also fixes any thing electrical like TV, computers, and BOOMBOXES he was the guy to look over the 777 before it came to me - he took it apart and checked every thing was working well ! He loved the DC7 and so we made a deal that he gets the DC7 free and i get a life time of him fixing my boxes
he said just drop of a load of boxes and he would give me a call when they are done and then drop off another load :thumbsup: I'm not going to over load him with them but i figure he can get through my lot over the next couple of years :lol:
I saw him working and he gets off on finding out what part is not working and tests it and keeps going till it's done - OCD
so as much as i loved the DC7 i knew i had to give it up to help the other boxes - I don't mind as he was so pleased with the DC7 and you could clearly see that he had the love of it and what it meant, so i knew it was going to a good home - we had a good long chat about things and how things in life should be - a job is to be done well and to it's best ability
so i now have a FIXER to sort out my machines
and my very clean 777H - still yet to take some good pic's outside
cheers B
Sweet !!!!!!!!!
