I had a fellow bring an R-390 to me.. that he said he had "tightened" all the screws up.. they were loose and sticking up, way above the cans they were supposed to be holding down.... when he turned it back on.. it couldn't hear any more.. can't be much.. he had just gotten everything tightened up. ....... ...... ..... (this is the silent period, while I figure out exactly what to say next).... .... ... .. .. .. .. .. .. ....... "It looks like it has been very well cared for." (...i.e. the case was clean....
He left it with me... It lived on my workbench for a lotta months.. before it finally went home... ... I wasn't real nice... I'd dripped wax on every tuning adj I could find... told him they were sealed now.. that they couldn't more now.. and they were exactly were they were supposed to be to hold the cans in perfect alignment. Left it with that. He thanked me.. and left with the R-390. I was really happy to see it go..
