Owned by me from new, sat in storage for a long time. Tested just now, please read: * Pots are crackly * Record/Play works * Rewind works * Fast forward doesn't always work, potentially needs a belt replacement according to forums Overall as expected for an unserviced machine of this age. See video and ask any questions before buying as I don't offer returns.

My Tascam 424 MK II in fantastic condition. This one is very clean throughout and works perfectly. All knobs and faders moving smoothly, only the tiniest of crackle from a couple of knobs on the EQ.

Excellent Condition. I checked the sound output using a cassette tape I had and it worked without any problems. Maybe we can find it for you. Regarding accessories, you will only receive the products shown in the photo.

Selling as spares or repair. It doesn't rewind or fast forward. Play is chewing the tapes. Has the power supply. One button end is missing. Please view the pictures.
