Wooden panels are in fairly good shape with some minor wear and dings on one . Refer to pics. Included is the original box and the owners manual (although not pictured). It has been tested, serviced, calibrated and the heads were cleaned and demagnetized for the best sound ever. The mic inputs were tested and they work as well as the other inputs. The pots and switches were sprayed and the metal parts were lubed as well. Both channels are clear and superb sounding as well. The belts and caps were checked and they’re good. All the functions work and the VU Meters light up and jump like they are supposed to. The sound when recording at 7 1/2 IPS is very clear and better and wider sounding than the Source recording from, depending on the type of tape used and better at 15 IPS . The heads are also in very good shape which is obviously why the quality is awesome as well. Pictured reels are my personal set for testing, for demonstration purposes only and NOT INCLUDED.

As far as the asking price goes, I am More than willing to listen to reasonable offers, but at the same time, NOT looking to give this away for cheap. I do have plenty of less expensive models for sale on here and at my Reverb store, you should purchase one of those if you are on a budget! For those who think the price might be a little too high, there is a saying I live by that goes “You Get What You Pay For”! Here, you are getting a deck that actually is cleaned, adjusted, rigorously tested, and ready to use out of the box. I am putting this out there in light of a bunch of people who add this to their watchlist or the shopping cart, but ultimately do not make the purchase (some do this to try to pressure me into reducing the price). If you’re looking for a deck that is ready to use and we’ll get any tape transfers or whatever recording job that you may have done, then you’ve come to the right place!Rather than get into long-winded descriptions, I’m going to try to keep this short and straight to the point.The shipping is $100 which also includes packing and Reverb safe shipping insurance which protect myself, and the buyer in case something happens to the item in transit. A Pre Shipment video tutorial as well as pictures of the packing job will be sent to the buyer. The buyer agrees to accept This is proof that the deck left here both working and packed properly. If a buyer suspects a problem with their unit, THEY MUST be willing to take it to a local repair shop or have it sent to one for repairs. Reverb safe shipping will cover the cost of the repairs.Due to the vintage nature of decades-old electronics, I CANNOT offer any kind of warranty. I do, however, give a 100% guarantee that it will arrive working as described in the listing. So, If there is any doubt whatsoever about my honesty and integrity, please visit my Reverb profile. you will see I have plenty of happy customers!All decks are cleaned, adjusted, serviced, and rigorously tested before they are listed to ensure they work properly. I have attempted to describe, as accurately as possible the description of every tape deck, including the cosmetic issues and any other issues that I may find and take plenty of clear pictures so you see exactly what you get. I am NO LONGER accept returns on these decks. Unfortunately, several of them have arrived in worse condition than they originally left here in (e.g. buyer did not pack the deck properly, or the deck was misused or tampered with) so accepting returns has become much too risky. So, the deck will be sold as described. However, if an issue does arise, or you need assistance, I will help out in anyway that I can!
