Re: The Ghettoblaster

THey did one with a record player (seen a pic)I haven't found one with a keyboard?Maybee his needs more research?

I've never seen one in real life, but my Dad used to have an early 1980s Hi-Fi magazine which had a feature on one.

I reckon that Sharp behemoth took 12 batteries. And I think Amstrad trumped the one with the record player inside. I seem to think they produced one with a music keyboard in the top. Need to research ...

Re: The Ghettoblaster

You need to either attach pics to the forum or host them in your own account somewhere like photobucket.
Otherwise the picture link can expire or where you've taken it from can remove or move it.
Copy and paste is no good.
Hope that helps.

I'll consider that .But normally if i get the images original location i can normally hotlink it .Or simply download and upload as an attachment.I use image hosting sites as well now and then.

Re: The Ghettoblaster

I thought the above photo might convey the sheer size instead God knows how many batteries it needed.
