Mini Story
A true icon of the early boombox era, the Sharp GF-6060 brought hi-fi sound and distinctive Japanese design to the portable stereo world.
This well-kept example includes its original Sharp operating manual — a rare addition for collectors. The radio plays nicely across AM, FM, and shortwave bands, while the cassette mechanism remains complete but needs fresh belts to return to full operation.
A perfect piece for restoration or display, with the charm and authenticity that only Sharp’s classic GF series delivers.
