Weekends

with my Old Man... Partly. Hee Hee.
.@ ICC for the Majlis Ilmu.

He, who has the most amazing creativity for modifications and fascination for the nuts and bolts finally put it to substantial use, when no one else could put the nuts and bolts back together.

.Reel-to-reel galore.


.1970's Nakamichi 1000, the world's first three-head cassette deck. At $3000 a piece back in the 1970's, this is one hellavu bomb.


.(L): Akai VTR. Vintage early to mid 1970s - Dubbed by some as the Extinct Akai Video Equipment. (R): The late Yang Amat Mulia Pengiran Anak Damit's tape recorder, 1950s/1960's. When the reel spins, you're like 'Damn, i want one of these!' (R)


.The late Sultan Omar 'Ali Saifuddien's player. Late 1970s - two head deck which takes 7' reels and has mechanical controls.
It was pretty cool chilling in the canteen with the old man gossiping about family matters and how much longer we have to wait....
Behold, my favourite pose... tadaaaaaa.
.Respect. Peace out.
