Work I have recently completed on this machine;recapped pre amp board, electrolytic caps.long switches on pre amp board have been disassembled and cleanedspeed, VU meters, and playback levels set using MRL calibration tapebiased using Maxell UD tapetrim pots on pre amp board replaced with Piher tr...im potsOutput, MIC, and Line pots cleaned and lubed
I have played back two tapes since recap, machine sounds good.
I have tested recording on a Maxell UD tape. 3 3/4 ips and 7 1/2 ips forward and backwards. Everything sounded good. Heads are in good shape.
I included one picture of the front face that shows the scratch. There are a couple scuffs, small in size, but nothing that I noticed like the scratch in the picture.
The dust cover has some issues, a crack on it and numerous scuffs and scrapes. That being said, still looks better than not having a cover on it.
The machine may need minor adjustments or fine tuning, especially if you do not use Maxell UD tape.
Please Email me with any questions or if you would like a different picture of the machine.
Due to its age the machine is being sold As-Is.
