Default Looking for REL tuner

If anyone comes across an excellent condition REL Precedent 646c let me know. Not the greatest tuner but a vintage look I like

Freestone.......Before this thread I had never heard of the REL Precedent 646c tuner. It is impressive looking.

They are pricey but the gold standard. Rare.

You mean why then? Because I don't hold FM to the same standard, and the looks really appeal to me. They bring back that old time feel!

Like Dan I had never heard of this tuner. It must have been something in its time. When were they built?

Is it actually a tuner or a self contained radio?
