✔ Working Condition

Fully working
• Playback, fast forward, rewind all operate properly
• Recording function available
Very clean condition
• Ready to use

⭐ Key Features (Important Selling Points)

Dual analog VU meters (needle type)
Dolby B noise reduction
FG servo motor for stable speed
Manual recording level control
3-position tape selector (Normal / FeCr / CrO2)
• Solid 1970s Sony metal construction

The analog VU meters are one of the most attractive features — they give real-time level feedback and add a strong retro visual appeal that collectors look for.

🎵 Why This Deck Stands Out

Unlike later plastic-era decks, the TC-U2 represents the end of the classic analog hi-fi design era, featuring:

• Metal front panel
• Large physical controls
Needle-style level meters instead of LEDs

This is exactly what vintage audio buyers search for.
