SONY TC-255 REEL TO REEL TESTED & WORKS, WITH SOFT COVER, LOOKS & SOUNDS GREAT!

Description

This vintage Sony TC-255 looks amazing and is in nice working condition. I tested recording and playback and it records and sounds really nice. The chassis and case are in really nice shape. The photos show all the details and you can see a few little nicks is all.
This machine will work really well right out of the box. We put it through its paces and found a few small things you might want to fix:
It takes a second or two to get up to speed. On the tape I used it got to speed by the time the music started.
The VU meters aren't operating correctly. They seem stuck in the red, even with the power off. They do move some when input volume is increased, but the movement is slight and they don't go back to the green.
When stopping fast-forward the take up reel stops before the other one and a bit of tape runs off the reel.
