Nakamichi 480 2 Head Cassette Deck, Lot 551

Description

This is a Nakamichi 480 2 Head Cassette Deck. The cassette deck's functions are all operating. The deck illuminates and all the meters are operating. I inserted a cassette and I was able to have it fast forward and reverse but when I began play the take-up spool did not properly take up the tape and it got caught in the mechanism. When I removed the cassette the tape was stuck in the lower carriage and it had to be pulled out thereby ruining the cassette. I tried this with two cassettes and the same thing occurred. I believe in the play function the spool does not have enough strength to take-up the tape from the other spool thereby causing the tape to jam up. I am selling this for parts and as needing repair with no return.
The highly detailed auction photos will show you the condition of the tape deck and act as the auction description of it.
