Summary:

The JVC SR-V101US is a professional-grade S-VHS/VHS videocassette player well-known for high-quality video playback of VHS and S-VHS formatted tapes. It also features a Time Base Corrector (TBC), essential for stable digital transfers (e.g. avoid dropped frames during digital capture). This an excellent, very well made option for high-quality digital archiving. Please note, this unit lacks a digital output, requiring a separate digitizer for digital archiving purposes.

What do I mean by “Fully Rebuilt? This item has been completely disassembled and rebuilt from the ground up. Every aspect, from mechanical components to electronics, has been meticulously examined and refurbished or replaced as necessary. It essentially represents a restoration to factory or near-factory condition. While it may exhibit minor signs of prior use, it is designed to perform exceptionally and reliably, often surpassing its original capabilities. This effort includes rebuilding the tape mechanism, replacing belts, replacing or fixing mechanical parts as needed, and repairing failed or near failing electronics (capacitors, ICPs, diodes, mosfets, etc.).

Video Cassette Tape Formats: VHS and S-VHS/Super VHS

What I like about it:

Professional Grade Build: This is a JVC professional-grade VCR, known for its robust construction. It is also just a simple, brillant design.
Good Value: While not on the same tier as models like the 9600, 9800, 9900, or 9911, it offers excellent high-quality playback at a good value.
No Dynamic Drum: Although I now have a process for avoiding problems with JVC's dynamic drum systems, this model doesn't require the dynamic drum disabling I now do on all 99XXs I sell (e.g. the 9600),
so this is another key reason for good value.
Reliable Workhorse: I personally use this exact model extensively to create test tapes for inventory testing, and this VCR has proven reliable for years without issues.
Excellent TBC: Includes a high-quality Time Base Corrector (TBC), which is essential for digital archiving.

Input/Outputs:

Input: S-Video, Composite Video, Audio (RCA stereo)
Output: S-Video, Composite Video, Audio (RCA stereo)

Pre-Shipment Checklist Process:

I adhere to a thorough pre-shipment checklist to test each feature and function of the VCR extensively, ensuring it is fully operational before shipment. Given the delicate nature of vintage electronics, this detailed process, refined over years of experience, is crucial. My listings typically include a 3-business-day turnaround to allow for this meticulous inspection. While I may occasionally ship sooner, this step is vital to guarantee that your VCR arrives in safely, and in full working condition.

Beyond the quality of my product, my commitment to providing unparalleled customer service remains unwavering. I've been on eBay for over 24 years, joining as a young whippersnapper when I was a senior in high school - attempting to build a computer for my budding interest in computer graphics. I’m now specializing in vintage, video and graphics electronics and take great pride in supporting these unique and rare devices. Often without manufacturer support due to their discontinued status, these treasures deserve special care. My perfect 100% positive review rating, and over two successful decades on eBay, attest to my dedication to offering a premium buying experience. Rest assured, your investment secures you not only a top-tier product but also personalized support at every juncture.
