The record player I grew up with is a freaking Mitsubishi

Mitsubishi was founded by a samauri.

So I was curious, and I looked it up. You're close: the founder was a descendent of a line of samurai, but his great grandfather sold the status/title in order to resolve debt obligations

I should ask my sisters if they remember the manufacturer of the one we had... If I had to take a guess, it was probably Sony

Mitsubishi now compose of 3 or 4 big companies that share the same name and... that's it. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has no relations whatsoever with Mitsubishi Corporation or Mitsubishi Electric
