  • Notes
  • This form of a Supreme 1606 is called "Blades" by some collectors. There is also a Realtone Valiant TR-803 with the same cabinet and technique. But we think there are even more brands for this. On the back panel it says REG. TRADE-MARK - DESIGNED AND MFG'ED BY REALTONE INT. JAPAN. The sticker on the inside lists the various batteries one could use to power it.
