ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS Vintage AKAI GX-266ii GX Focused Field Reel to Reel Made in Late 1970's. This is a 6 head deck with the Glass and Crystal Ferrite Heads which means it will RECORD in BOTH DIRECTIONS as well as PLAYBACK in Both directions and the heads themselves are made to last Many Many lifetimes.
This is 2 Channel, 4 Track Deck. Direct Drive. Takes Reel sizes up to 7 Inches .
Two Speed deck, 3 3/4 and 7 1/2 ips. All 6 Heads are in great shape. This deck has a "PITCH CONTROL" which some that do CD Conversions find In-Dispensable. Converting a Tape on a machine that played a little Slow or Fast, ---------PITCH CONTROL for the WIN !
Rewind, Fast Forward, Play, Record, Pause, Auto Reverse during Playback AND Record, Counter All working Nicely. Pinch Roller is in Excellent Shape.
Wooden Side Panels have some small pieces missing but only a few. I really didn't have time to make new side panels for this deck but I did take a brown sharpie and cover up some of the bare wood spots in a pinch.
This deck uses the Twist Reel Locks so No rubber reel holders to keep track of. Meter Needles are that Cool shade of Green. Proud Looking Deck. This one I REALLY, REALLLLLY Don't want to Sell. But...................The Kids want Milk and Shoes and the old lady needs her prescriptions. What can ya Do ?!?
All Knobs, Feet, tape guides, etc are complete and original.
All Lamps and LED's Work including the REC, Rec Pause, Both PLAY Buttons, Meter Lamps, Record etc all work as they should, Like New.
