TASCAM Portastudio 246 in very good condition.

New rubbers and belts. Cleaned mechanisms and lubricated.

The undisputed champ of vintage Tascam portastudios. If you are looking for that authentic lo-fi analog warmth, tape loop saturation, or bedroom pop vibe, this is the ultimate machine.

I have recorded a few songs on it and it sounds incredible. Finally finish that album you've been holding off on!

Excellent cosmetic condition overall, a few marks. The acrylic dust cover/door is broken. Spring mechanism isnt functioning. You can either remove the door entirely, or just to insert the tape and then put the door back in place.

All VU meters shining bright. EQ's sound buttery smooth. Features two recording speeds + pitch control. 6 inputs. Two effect sends.

All items are sold in the condition shown in the photos, so please review all images carefully before purchasing.
