For sale is one (1) JVC SR-V101US video cassette player/recorder. Super-VHS Professional deck for playback or recording of VHS tape.


This unit is in good cosmetic condition for its age. Had some visible weathering, some dust and scratches, and some indentations on the top from the rubber rack mount feet (slightly melted plastic from the rubber). Glue residue around the IR sensor (an IR flasher was previously glued to the front). Power cord is solid and good. Unit was removed from a working media rack and limited testing was done:

I can confirm that it powers up, buttons on the front work as they should, transport works for changing the channel or FF/RR while playing a tape, digital readout looks normal and counter seems to work. I only tested with a VHS tape to confirm that the unit will play, fast forward, rewind, stop, and eject normally. I had no way to see the image or hear the sound so I can’t say whether everything in that area is working normally. These are old units from a working environment so I would expect they need some calibration, tune up, possible belt adjustment, etc so buy accordingly as I can’t guarantee that those things are working beyond my limited testing.


I have 7 units total, this is for one unit. No remote control or manual, only the unit itself and nothing else. It will be packed safely with plenty of foam/bubble wrap to keep it safe in transit.






From the old brochure for these decks:


Repeat Recording & Playback

Just hold down the PLAY button on the VCR or remote control for more than 5 seconds and the tape in the VCR will play back repeatedly as many times as you like. You can set the VCR to repeat playback from the beginning of the tape and continue to either the end of the tape or the end of the recording. Similarly,by holding down the REC button and the PLAY button on the remote or the REC botton on the VCR for more than 5 seconds during recording,you can set the VCR to automatically rewind the tape and repeat recording on the same tape.


Series Recording & Playback

Convenient for security systems,exhibits,and many other applications,this feature lets you connect two or more VCRs for continuous recording/playback. The recording/playback signal is automatically relayed to the next VCR at the tape end (or picture end in playback).
