Stella ST459

The Stella ST459 dates from around 1965 and is brand new in it's original carton with all packing. It has the original new microphone, a DIN lead and 7" spool of tape in their unopened packets. There is also a tape playing time calculator and the un-posted warranty card.

It was rescued from a warehouse that was closing down who had the machine unsold from the time it was manufactured. When I connected it up it did play very quietly but didn't rewind - I have since replaced the drive belts and it works beautifully.

It is a four track machine and has four speeds. The Philips equivalent was the EL3549. It cost around 62 guineas in 1965.
