This is one of those rare decks that you don't see very often, and rarely in this nice of shape. I have been collecting the Pioneer Z-Series components for some time, and I have a number of these cassette decks.

This deck is from my collection and has been restored and works great. For those who are not familiar with this cassette deck, check out the link in this ad. The CT-A1 was sold in Japan only but it's twin sibling, the Phase Linear Model 7000 was sold outside of Japan. Nice thing is the Phase Linear service manual can also be used for the CT-A1.

This deck has the upgraded Sendust Heads that are in great condition.  All functions work including BLE.

I am also including a Pioneer OEM maintenance kit, that includes everything to maintain the deck!

For those unfamiliar with the Pioneer Z-Series, here is a nice summary: https://www.hifinext.com/pioneer-z1-all-models-of-the-famous-first-series/

Highlights of this CT-A1:

- Completely disassembled and cleaned
- Door slides cleaned and greased for smooth operation
- ALL buttons and Knobs removed and cleaned
- Pots and switched cleaned with Deoxit
- Aluminum cleaned and polished
- All New Belts
- New Rollers
- BLE board and motor control re-capped with TOTL Nichicon Gold
- Power supply voltage adjusted per SM
- Heads cleaned and demagnetized
- RCA Jacks cleaned

I used this deck for recording/playback and it sounds fantastic!

Deck will be packed safely for shipping. I will ship in a double walled, heavy-duty box. I have packed and shipped many vintage items, please check out my reviews.

NOTE: This unit runs on 100VAC. Reach out for questions on what Step-down I use (I run almost exclusively 100VAC Japanese equipment)

Thanks for looking
