Is this Item a Fake or Counterfeit?
media plays perfectly from end-to-end. very hifi recording. Box has some wear - see pics. Check out the cool leader tape with album details. Stored tails out now (so that cool leader tape is hidded on the inside, and i've put plain white leader tape on the tail that now presents to the outside) as all 2 track tapes should be - rewind or play onto another reel before playing.

This tape is very low in background hiss and the instruments sound very real. one of the more hifi tapes I've heard.

Tape was gently handled play tested on my frequently calibrated (i'm a tech + audio nut) PR99. The tape plays and sounds perfect, monitored by headphones.

Reel-To-Reel, 7.5 ips, ΒΌ", 2-Track Stereo, 7" Cine Reel

Stored tails out as all 2 tracks should be (rewind or play onto another reel before playback).

As you see, the box has some light wear on the front image, but the box is nice and crisp with typical edge wear - see pics.

This is from my personal collection. I handle carefully and use plastic sleeves, never touch the tape, don't fwd/pause/rwd, etc. I'm not some estate seller, and I enjoyed this tape exactly 2 times. One to play test and level check, and the 2nd time to make a 24-bit/96kHz recording to the PC so I can enjoy this tape on my commute to work, and have listened to the digital copy many times and noticed no audio anomalies.

Standard shipping is media mail; let me know before paying if you want something different. No returns, as I've checked the item very carefully and described fully. Will be shipped in a box, not an envelope.
