One more option, if you have access to a mixer, is a Tascam 238. It's a standalone 8 track cassette recorder.

Just curious. Is that a side affect attributed to tinnitus?

Not quite sure how that makes any sense. Alright, I admit i didn't read all the way up to the refd pic. I too had received that catalog. It's a disturbing picture, and an incredibly strange one to use for selling instruments. The only humour I found was the sheer absurdity. At that point you read t...

I'm pretty sure I grabbed my current bottle at Longs. I would think any drugstore and probably large hardware store might carry it.

I feed it my Hamptone jfet for color, and use the 0...
