PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION, SEE VIDEO AND PICS 

For sale is a TASCAM 32 10.5 inch 2 track 2 channel stereo Reel to Reel tape deck recorder. It is in good to very good condition albeit with some scuffs and marks, nicks and dings as shown. Refer to pics. a new drive belt, and pinch roller tire was installed. 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 tape heads do contain some moderate headwear, but it does not affect the sound quality in any way shape or form! I’m putting this out there because getting good pictures of the tape heads without them looking worse than they really are is in increasingly difficult due to the weather changes. 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 . Pictured  reels and hubs are for demonstration purposes only and are NOT INCLUDED! You may purchase the hub adapters separately for $85!

Most of these units are decades old and will inevitably have headwear, although not enough to affect the sound quality. If that were the case, I would replace the tape heads before listing the deck, and include the old heads for reference.

SERIOUS BUYERS PLEASE!!!

I will NOT negotiate against myself on the price by repeatedly dropping it because one or more people can’t be bothered to use the “Make an Offer” button!

If you’re waiting on a paycheck, that’s fine. If you want to do comparisons with other units before purchasing, that is your right. However, I am not running a digital museum exhibit or free entertainment for people because they’re bored or just curious if it’ll sell, but an online e-commerce store.

I genuinely appreciate the admiration of my listings, but watchers, window shoppers, and casual browsers DO NOT pay the bills or bring more of these great units! Only actual purchases do!

Once again, I am not trying to be rude in any way shape or form, but if after a certain period of time, there’s a bunch of watchers and people adding this to their shopping cart, but do not make a purchase or an effort to negotiate on something we can both agree on, I will take that as a sign of no genuine interest and just remove and repost the listing.

If you’re serious about making a purchase, let’s work something out! if you can’t afford it or you feel the price is too expensive, PLEASE RESPECTFULLY PASS on this listing!
