About this listing
PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION, SEE VIDEO AND PICS For sale is a TEAC A-3300SR 10.5 inch 4-Track Auto Reverse 2 channel stereo Reel to Reel tape deck recorder. It is in good to very good condition albeit with some scuffs and marks, and several dings as shown on the wooden panels. Refer to pics. It has been tested, serviced, calibrated and the heads were cleaned and demagnetized for the best sound ever. This model is very similar to that of the A-6300 and the A-3300SX with comparable sound quality. 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 3 3/4 IPS is very clear and better and wider sounding than the Source recording from, depending on the type of tape used and better at 7 1/2 IPS . The heads are also in very good shape which is obviously why the quality is awesome as well (I have attached a picture). Pictured reels are NOT INCLUDED!

Some people are just testing me just to see if I’ll come down on the price significantly a long time later and can’t be bothered to use the “Make an Offer button”. Some are just looking for some attention because they’re bored. Some add these items to their watchlist or shopping cart because it’s a hobby or because they are just curious if it’ll sell. And others? They can’t afford these units, but waste time anyways.This is my honest-to-goodness observation, based on the pattern of things. I really am a nice person to deal with and I go to the ends of the Earth to assure every customer they are dealing with an honest and reputable seller. However, I do have boundaries when it comes to people who play games and I do enforce them by removing and reposting listings after a while if I feel there is no genuine interest in them.As I’ve stated before, I really appreciate the admiration of my listings, but they are intended for serious buyers who are ready to move forward with making a purchase. These units are priced accordingly based on quality how much time and effort was put into testing, restoring, making necessary adjustments, cosmetics, and how much I sold them for in the past, and ensuring that it will arrive in working condition when the new buyer receives it.If you want to negotiate on the price, that is what the “Make an Offer” button is for—USE IT! I will either accept, decline or counter your offer accordingly!If this is outside your budget or you don’t feel this is the right one for you, I do ask that you respectfully pass on this listing and look into other alternatives more suited to your price range or what you might be looking for. There are plenty of them out there!Direct offers may be sent or limited time discounts (around 10-15% off) may be posted if after a certain period of time there are a lot of watchers on this unit. The purpose is to engage with anyone who is ready to move forward with making a purchase. If there is no response to the offers or discounts after 24-48 hours or they are declined, that will be interpreted as a sign of no genuine interest and the listing will be removed.Rather than get into long-winded descriptions, I’m going to try to keep this short and straight to the point.The shipping 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.
