SONY TCM-20DV Walkman Cassette Player Recorder

SONY TCM-20DV Walkman Cassette Player Recorder

All the servicing details are shown in the photos. Every part of the player has been carefully cleaned and serviced — not a speck of dust left in any corner.
1. Motor fully serviced and lubricated. The metal flywheel gives it smooth and stable tape transport.
2. Fully adjustable playback speed. The speed can be adjusted smoothly and continuously, so you can easily correct tapes that are running a little too fast or too slow.
3. Recording function fully tested. It also has a recording pause switch, and I have tested the recording — the sound is very clear.
4. Built-in speaker. You can enjoy the tape without headphones. Perfect for bringing along to the park or out onto the grass on a nice summer day.
5. Excellent overall condition. The player is in very good shape for its age.

Looking for a cassette player you can actually have confidence in?
With vintage cassette players, age really matters. If a player hasn't been properly serviced and looked after, you simply won't get the listening experience these machines are capable of.
That's where I come in. I take the servicing seriously, and I make sure the player is properly looked after rather than just doing a quick belt change and calling it done.
Since the recorder has mono output, when a stereo headphone is fully inserted, sound only comes from the left side. This is not a fault of the cassette player — it's simply how Recorder designed these mono models. By slightly pulling out the headphone plug (halfway), audio can be heard from both sides of the headphones.

Price is for the player only. Batteries and cassette tape are not included.
You are very welcome to test and listen to it when collecting. I will provide batteries and a cassette tape for testing, so you can have a proper listen and make sure you're happy with it before buying.
