Yep, I remember this one. Cute how the line level sliders make it look like a JVC receiver or amp with SEA....

I have just picked up one of these and would like some info on it. Seems that there is not a lot of info or even pics. picked up one I think cheap.

If you have any tapes that screech because they're dried up (the ones sold on ebay that have been in a storage unit, garage or shed for years) these one motor machines may play them without any problem. I've had it happen.

There was some tape on it seems that they recorded on 1 and 3 something then flipped it and recorded on 2 and 4 something else. All lights light up and tape plays but having problems with slower speed. I will try to get some pics up of my machine. I just wonder is there a demand for such a thing. Not alot of pics or info out there for this model.

Decided to try and restore mine.
Anybody have any parts?
i need the top rail of the frame that goes around the faceplate.
I also need some help on putting all the interior auto-stop rubber back where it belongs. I already put a new drive tire on it and cleaned the rest up.
