CONDITION: In excellent cosmetic condition with minimal wear or age to the face, aside from one scratch above the Reverb Volume knob. The tolex is superb with only very minor wear. The metal jack sockets and clasps have minimal oxidation showing. Internally, this unit is very clean with one patch of oxidation towards the front.

REPLACEMENT TAPES: We could (and we will) write a lot about our journeys in tape and the misinformation and poor quality tapes that seem to fill the internet. We do not currently have tape stock but for now you can buy tried and tested replacement Roland tape loops from Echo Fix. These are the only tapes we recommend. We may also have a very limited supply of sealed original NOS RT1-L tapes - see our store or get in touch.

There are currently no operational issues with this machine, but please be aware that these units require looking after and that regular use and maintenance are key to keeping this in good working order.

Some crackle is always possible from pots/switches when not used for a while - this can be cleared with use.
