All switches, dials and RCA contact are de-oxidized and cleaned.

All belts, tire and tape transport mechanism are fully serviced and re-aligned for smooth operation

Play head and all metal on tape path are demagnetized, cleaned and tested for tape tracking and reading. Record and play back speed (wow and flutter) have been re-calibrated within manufacturer specs.

The internal electronics circuit is in good condition. No signs of cap leak, no degrade components, no sign of previous repair or modification.

No return if due to buyer mishandling or damage because of lack of proper operational knowledge - and above all we are watching out for the part swappers if anti-tamper stickers on the unit removed or broke off. Serial number is recorded.
