[QUOTE="Andre Vermeulen, post: 284209, member: 2569"] I was given one of these today by a friend in original packaging with manual.This unit looks absolutely beautiful,stunning wood finish and as mint a cosmetic condition as one will ever see.I always wanted to hear a reel to reel but sadly i have no tapes that will fit this unit and it was stored with the weird joystick controller in what i assume to be "play" position which has caused a nice and perfect semi circle indent in the pinch roller :(...it is deep enough to stop the roller turning at low speed.Something else that i assume is wrong is that no matter the position of the joystick controller the reels keep turning(not normal i assume?)....Anyone able to offer any guidance or should this one just sent packing?One last thing,this model came in a two and four track version,how do i know which one it is?Thanks gents.
