This Panasonic "SE-970 Multiplex Stereo" music center plays AM/FM radio and vinyl records, and has two matched Panasonic 16-ohm speakers.This piece has been kept in clean storage and is in near mint condition. It has been recently tested and works great for a fifty-year-old player. This record player was acquired by Racquel Suarez, who was Frank Sinatra's trusted personal assistant and housekeeper of his Rancho Mirage estate. According to Suarez, Sinatra kept this radio in his painting studio where he’d immerse himself for hours creating his masterpieces while listening to classical music, his secret passion. A lesser known fact about the singer is that he enjoyed painting as a hobby for over 40 years. This amazing piece is in beautiful condition, and truly belongs in a museum.
