Please read all of the description:
For sale is my Fostex G16 Multi track reel to reel tape recorder with one 1/4 tape and 1 empty reel for the tape feed into.
I have listed the item as poor as it is functioning, all transport controls work, audio plays back, vu meters light up and move to the audio.
However, I can't guarantee that all tracks playback /record correctly. There is a dedicated PCB per channel and that might have caps or components that need replacing.
It definitely needs a service. I don't know what condition any of the heads are in and if they can be renewed or have to be replaced.
The motor work and plays, stops, rwd and ff fine but will definitely need a service to get it accurate.
The hinges for the front control panel are abit flaky and one of rear legs has broken off.
It's a great bit of kit but just needs some really good tlc.
It's really too heavy to send so ideally would be collection only.
I have videos of it in action but no audio. Let me know if you want to see them and I can upload them somewhere.
Please message with any questions.

For a video of the tape machine running please use the link below. Unfortunately I don't have speakers to hook it up to do there is no audio from the tape.
