Really exotic or weird XBR Trinitron 29" console

[kx250rider]

I picked up this 29" Sony KV-29XBR45 on Thursday... This is a console with VCR compartment below, and smoke safety glass out front of the tube. I had seen one of these before, and always was curious whether this was ever sold in the USA. It basically is the same chassis as a KV-32XBR25, but has a very bizarre 29" CRT. Also has a remote control motor-driven swivel base. This is a full 1-piece console; not a table model TV on a semi-attached base. The TV does not separate from the bottom. The audio subchassis is in the bottom part, and has many cables interconnecting with the TV chassis. Also has the degaussing thermistor on the bottom chassis, and has a jumper across where it normally is located in the USA sets. Just to clarify about the screen size: This is 29" Viewable. NOT a 27" viewable "29 inch" Canadian set. See the photo for the picture tube decal. The original owner says he bought the TV in Guam on a USA military base (used).

The base rotator motor control board is shown where I'm pointing in the #3 photo.

I like weird stuff, so that's the only reason I picked it up. NO place to put it besides the middle of the diningroom as shown in the photos
