Tascam CC-222MKII cassette/CD recorder (working/cassette RW & FFWD sluggish)

Description

Tascam CC-222MKII rack mountable cassette deck/CD rewritable recorder in good condition, but in need of some service. I tested cassette & CD playback functions, as well as CD recorder function. Unit sat in storage for years and that likely led to the issues that I discovered. Cassette playback is good; however, FFWD & Rewind are finicky. Some tapes I tested rewound and fast-forwarded properly, but with some tapes the unit was very sluggish or didn't FFWD/RW at all. I didn't have any issues with Play (either direction) or Pause. The RW/FFWD issue probably has something to do with rubber idler tires or related components. Belts are all intact and look good. CD deck reads, plays, and records discs properly. Playback audio with both cassette & CD are clear and balanced across both channels. I successfully recorded from cassette to CD. I did not test any recording capabilities of the cassette side. I also did not attempt to record onto CD from outboard equipment. Display & indicators illuminate fully. Digital level meters work properly. Headphone output & level control work well. Cassette & CD drawers both eject and close smoothly.
Cosmetically, unit looks great and shows very light wear. Front panel has a few small marks but looks very good overall. Display is mostly free of scratches. Cabinet is in good condition and free of dents or damage. Cabinet has some tiny marks here & there. Rack fins are in VG shape. Rear panel & cord are fully intact and look good. Interior of unit is clean and free of dirt or debris.
Unit likely needs some service to address the cassette FFWD/RW issue. I fully guarantee unit to function properly in all areas except for the cassette FFWD/RW function. Please inspect & test deck upon receiving and notify me directly if there are any issues (beyond those mentioned in description). Unit will be packaged securely for shipment.
Note: Remote is not included
