Default Re: Anyone know what this is out of.

The pot core is the give away. There is a large-ish switch for record/play mode, and there looks to be an angled extension board to carry a socket for a magic eye.

Fee fo fi dum... I see a few red and black Plessey electrolytic capacitors which would seem to rule out Philips, and possibly Grundig

So who else was making cheapish tape recorders in 1960? Probably one of the British radio brands, maybe early Elizabethan?
