It plays just fine, but the brakes need repair. I mad the mistake of putting my custom BASF 2400" tape of Santana live and studio tracks up and the tape slipped then I manage to get it into FF and the takeup reel slipped out some tape and proceeded to wrap it around the spindle, until it was like curling ribbon for presents.
As soon as I can get the other monitor back up and warm so that it doesn't blink at me I will get the floppy shots uploaded.
