What's the oldest piece of gear in your system?

This site is here for the buying and selling of Audio equipment. This causes me to wonder if most of us have relatively new equipment. If most of it is new, what is the oldest piece of equipment still in use, and why are you still using it?

My oldest piece is a Sota Star Sapphire, but it has been upgraded. It was originally purchased as a Sapphire in the 80's, but was upgraded to a Star Sapphire about two or three years ago.

What's your story?

I have a Sony TC580 Reel to Reel Tape Deck purchased in 1973.

It recently had a tune up by Kevin Kaas in Seminole, FL. It's playing like new. 1/4" Audiotape still is the purest sound in my system loaded with McIntosh components (Amps and Sources).

EBAY Sellers with verified quality tapes are my newest fans.
